Q

22
Q

all samples of a compound, regardless of origin, will have the same ratio of its constituent elements

A

law of definite proportions

23
Q

when two elements of A and B form two different compounds, the ratio of the masses of element B that combine with one gram of element A will always be a small whole number

A

law of multiple proportions

24
Q

John Daltons four observations relating to atomic theory

A
  1. All elements are composed of tiny, indestructible particles called atoms.
  2. All atoms of a single element are the same and have properties that distinguish them from other
    elements.
  3. Atoms combine in simple, whole number ratios to form compounds.
  4. Atoms of one element cannot change into atoms of another. Chemical reactions only change how atoms are bonded together
25
