Dalton came up with that theory. It was proven wrong, though.
The British chemist John Dalton, as part of his atomic theory, stated that all atoms of a given element are identical but they differ from those of other elements.
That is part of John Dalton's atomic theory.

Two atoms of same element (for a given isotope) are identical and hence have the same atomic radius.
No. All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons and, when neutral, the same number of electrons. They can, however, differ in the number of neutrons.
These ideas are:· "All atoms of a given element are identical" : discovery of isotopes.· "A given compound always has the same relative numbers of types of atoms" : discovery of nonstoichiometric compounds.
The five main points of John Dalton's atomic theory are as followed: · Elements are made of tiny particles called atoms. · All atoms of a given element are identical. · The atoms of a given element are different from those of any other element. · Atoms of one element can combine with atoms of other elements to form compounds. · A given compound always has the same relative numbers of types of atoms. · Atoms cannot be created, divided into smaller particles, nor destroyed in the chemical process. A chemical reaction simply changes the way atoms are grouped together.
Theory forming the basis of accepted modern atomic theory, according to which matter is made of particles called atoms, reactions must take place between atoms or groups of atoms, and atoms of the same element are all alike but differ from atoms of another element.
These affirmations are not valid today:· All atoms of a given element are identical.· A given compound always has the same relative numbers of types of atoms.
Atoms are indivisible and indestructible, and all of the atoms of a given element are identical in mass.

Today we know that atoms can be destroyed to nuclear reactions but not by chemical reactions.
Two atoms of same element (for a given isotope) are identical and hence have the same atomic radius.
Thse affirmations are not considered valid today:· All atoms of a given element are identical. · A given compound always has the same relative numbers of types of atoms.
daltons atomic postulations stated that: * Elements are made of tiny particles called atoms. * All atoms of a given element are identical. * The atoms of a given element are different from those of any other element; the atoms of different elements can be distinguished from one another by their respective relative weights. * Atoms of one element can combine with atoms of other elements to form chemical compounds; a given compound always has the same relative numbers of types of atoms. * Atoms cannot be created, divided into smaller particles, nor destroyed in the chemical process; a chemical reaction simply changes the way atoms are grouped together.
Two principles not valid today:· All atoms of a given element are identical.· A given compound always has the same relative numbers of types of atoms.
Atoms of the same element differ in the number of neutrons in their nuclei. All atoms of a given element have the same number of protons, of course. The number of protons in a nucleus determines which element the atom is. But the number of neutrons can vary, and these different "versions" of a given element are called isotopes of that element. See the related question, which is linked below.
isotopes of a given element differ in the number of neutrons they have.
No. All atoms of the same element have the same number of protons and, when neutral, the same number of electrons. They can, however, differ in the number of neutrons.
