Option B.) Atoms are indivisible particles, which cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
The Dalton's atomic theory states that :-
- Elements consist of minute, indivisible, indestructible particles called atoms.
- Atoms of an element are identical to each other.
- They have the same mass and size.
- Atoms of different elements differ in properties and have different masses and sizes.
- Compounds are formed when atoms of different elements combine with each other in simple numerical ratios such as one-to-one, one-to-two, two-to-three and so on.
- Atoms cannot be created, destroyed or transformed into atoms of other elements.
- The relative number and kind of atoms are always the same in a given compound.
