Question

Why does DALTON'S law not explain GAY LUSSAC'S law?

Answer 1

hey dear sweet friend here is your answer

Dalton said that atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and other properties.

Gay Lussac’s theory suggested that equal moles of gases have or occupy same volume provided temperature and pressure remain constant.

According to Dalton, the theory would have changed because he explained that all the atoms of different elements have same mass.

So, if you take one kilograms of dihydrogen and same amount of chlorine then they would occupy same volume. But this is wrong..

Thus Dalton’s atomic theory didn’t fit into the scoop of Gay Lussac’s law.

Answer 2

here is your answer:-


According to Dalton, the theory would have changed because he explained that all the atoms of different elements have same mass.

So, if you take one kilograms of bromine and same amount of chlorine then they would occupy same volume. But this is wrong..

Thus Dalton’s atomic theory didn’t fit into the scoop of Gay Lussac’s law.

hope it helped ^_^
