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
Within 100 years of Daltons Atomic Theory, scientists had discovered that atoms were composed of even smaller ____
subatomic particles
26
a negatively charged, "low mass", particle that resides outside the atomic nucleus responsible for chemical bonding
electron
27
a neutrally charged, "high mass" particle that resides in the atomic nucleus, provides mass and stability for atoms, and is responsible of isotopes
neutron
28
atoms of the same element that have different masses
isotope
29
a positively charged, "high mass" particle that resides in the nucleus and gives atoms their identity
proton
30
the capacity to do work
energy
31
the action of a force through a distance

heterogenous mixture
50
the same composition throughout
homogenous mixture
