Yes. He proposed that all elements have a specific mass, and each atom for a particular element would have that mass.

Did John Dalton's model of the atom look like a tiny solid sphere with a predictable mass for a given element?

I think it probably looked like a sphere. not positive.


What on Dalton's theory would you expect a carbon atom to have the same mass as an oxygen atom?

According to Dalton's atomic theory, atoms of different elements have different masses. Therefore, a carbon atom would not be expected to have the same mass as an oxygen atom, as they are distinct elements with different atomic weights. Carbon has an atomic mass of about 12 amu, while oxygen has an atomic mass of about 16 amu. Thus, Dalton's theory supports the idea that each element's atoms possess unique masses.

How a proton contributes to the overall mass of an atom?

Dalton (atomic gram): It is defined as one twelfth of the rest mass of an unbound neutral atom of carbon 12 in its nuclear and electronic ground state and has a value of 1.660538921(73)×10−27 kg. One dalton is approximatelyequal to the mass of one proton or one neutron. (one twelfth of the mass of a completely normal carbon 12 atom)That mumbo jumbo means that a Dalton is like the gram of atoms, the measurement of weight that fits in with the nuclease of an atom. So according to that, a proton or a nutron is approximately equal to one dalton. The decimal places, however, are not that approximate I was talking about. That has to do with the different isotopes of whatever element you're talking about. Quick answer: one proton/nutron = one dalton.


Who invented the atomic mass unit?

The concept of the atomic mass unit was established by chemist John Dalton in the early 1800s. Dalton introduced the idea of using a standard unit to represent the mass of atoms relative to each other.

Who said the mass of an electron is about 12000 that of a hydrogen atom?

its not, its closer to about 1/1800 of a hydrogen atom, the English chemist john Dalton was the first person to discover relative atomic masses and use them properly.


Did Dalton's model of the atom include protons neutrons and electrons inside the the atom?

no, because according to him an atom is a tiny indestructable sphere with mass on it.


Who proposed the atom theory that all matter is composed of atoms and that all atoms of an element are alike?

John Dalton proposed the atom theory in the early 19th century. He suggested that all matter is made up of tiny, indivisible particles called atoms, and that all atoms of a specific element are identical in size, mass, and properties.


What is relative atomic mass and atomic mass amu?

The relative atomic mass was first proposed by John Dalton in 1803. According to it, the mass of an atom was expressed relative to the mass of one 1H atom. The unit was later changed to 1/16 of the mass of an oxygen atom. However, this measure was discarded when 17O and 18O were discovered. In 1961 the basic unit was changed (once again) to 1/12 of the mass of a 12C atom. The mass of any atom or molecule is measured in atomic mass units (AMU) and the units is defined as 1/12 the mass of a 12Carbon atom.
