Question
Chapter 4, Problem 6E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Among the given Dalton’s proposals, the one that is proved to be invalid is to be identified.
Concept introduction:
On the grounds of the law of mass conservation and definite proportion, John Dalton gave the atomic theory. The theory of Dalton says that:
• An element is made up of tiny particles whose decomposition occurs into smaller particles known as atoms.
• An element consists of same atoms which have the same characteristics.
• Atoms of various components combine to produce distinct compounds in distinct proportions.
