- Atoms are invisible particles,which cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
- Atoms of a given element are identical in mass and chemical properties.

Answer:
Dalton's atomic theory was the first complete attempt to describe all matter in terms of atoms and their properties. The first part of his theory states that all matter is made of atoms, which are indivisible. The second part of the theory says all atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties.
