Dalton's Atomic Theory - 1808
•All elements are composed of atoms (indivisible particles) •All atoms of the same element are identical - in particular they have the same mass. •The atoms of one kind of element are different from the atoms of all other elements - in particular the atoms of one element have a different mass than those of other elements. •Atoms are indestructible and retain their identity in chemical reactions.• Compounds are formed by joining atoms in specific whole number ratios.
