Dalton's atomic theory states that a pure substance is made up of tiny particles called 'atoms', and that each atom of a substance will be identical in shape, size and behavior to any other atom of that substance, regardless of source or location. Any two samples of a pure substance will demonstrate the same properties because all of these samples are comprised of identical atoms which behave identically.

Is a atomic change the same substance after it changes?

Yes, an atomic change involves rearranging the atoms of a substance to form a new substance. The new substance may have different properties than the original substance due to the change in atomic structure.


Why do we need atoms?

According to modern Periodic Table Atomic numbers are the fundamentals in order to explain the properties of an atom.One thing more and that is the concept of isotopes also make the atomic masses less strong to explain atomic properties which has no effect on atomic numbers.


The weight in daltons of one atom of an element is?

equal to the atomic mass of the element expressed in daltons. It is essentially the mass of one mole of the element in grams.


What is the approximate mass of a neon-11 atom?

The approximate mass is 11. Technically you could express this in units of daltons as 11 Da (Daltons previously called amu, atomic mass unit, or as 11 (the dimensionless, relative atomic mass which chemists simply call atomic weight) .


If the atomic mass of oxygen is 16 and the atomic mass of hydrogen is 1 how do the current atomic masses compare to daltons?

Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. The atomic mass listed on the periodic table is an average of all the isotopes of an element, which includes the mass of the protons and neutrons. Therefore, the atomic masses listed for oxygen (16) and hydrogen (1) are in daltons.

Which tenet of Daltons atomic theory did Thomson disprove?

Atoms cannot be divided into smaller particles.


What main feature of daltons atomic model was abandoned after thomson's discoveries?

The idea that atoms are indivisible.


What is the propites of the elements?

Different elements all have very different properties. However, you can define an element as a substance with only one type of atom in (e.g. only sulphur atoms). If a substance has more than one type of atom in, then it is either a compound or a mixture, depending on whether the elements have bonded.


How did daltons atomic theory lead to the different model scientists have today?

Dalton's theory was irrelevant to the total compensation of of the Atomic Mass.


How can you use Dalton's atomtic theory to explain why every sample of a pure substance has the same properties?

Dalton's atomic theory states that elements are made up of tiny particles called atoms, which are identical for each element. Therefore, every sample of a pure substance has the same properties because it is composed of the same type of atoms arranged in a specific way, leading to consistent physical and chemical characteristics.
