Question

What are the main ideas of Dalton's atomic theory?

Answer 1

Answer:

✔The main points of Dalton's Atomic Theory are as follows:

⭐Matter is made up of small, indivisible particles called atoms.

⭐Atoms of a given element are identical in all respect, i.e., they possess same size, shapes, masses, properties etc.

⭐Atoms of different element are different in all respect, i.e., they possess different size, shapes, masses, properties etc.

⭐Atoms of different elements may combine with each other in a fixed, simple, whole number ratio to form compounds.

⭐Atoms can neither be created nor be destroyed in a chemical reaction.
