Q

What is Dalton’s Atomic Theory? (4)

A
  1. Each element is composed of atoms
  2. All atoms of an element are identical, different atom = different element
  3. Atoms of one element can’t be changed into a different atom, not created nor destroyed
  4. Compounds are formed when atoms of more than one element combine
