They said that the USA was a voluntary assembly of states, and any of them could quit the Union if they wanted.

Southerners often justified the theory of states' rights and the institution of slavery by arguing that the Constitution allowed states to govern themselves and make their own laws. They claimed that slavery was a necessary economic system that benefited the Southern economy and society.

This justification was deeply rooted in a desire to preserve their way of life and economic interests during the antebellum period.

Moseley was the first to clear and scientifically justify in 1913 the atomic number studying X-ray spectra of chemical elements. But Moseley hadn't a personal atomic theory, he was not the discoverer of the atomic theory.
