|
|
The Greek meaning of the word Atom is
|
indivisible
|
|

and thought all matter was continuous |
Aristotle
|
|
The transforming of substances to one or more new substances is called a
|
Chemical Reation
|
|
1790's study of matter is revolutionized by
|
new emphasis on the quantitative analysis of chemical reactions
|
|
Mass is neither created nor destroyed in ordinary physical/chemical changes
|
Law of Conservation of Mass
|
|
Chemical compounds have the same elements in exact same proportions by mass regardless of the size or source of compound.
|
Law of Definite Proportions
|
|
Two or more different compounds are composed at same two elements, then the ratio of the masses of the second element combined with a certain mass of the first element is always a ratio of small whole numbers.
|
Law of Multiple Proportions
|
|
John Dalton in 1808 proposed
|
Dalton's Atomic Theory
|
|
All matter is composed of
|
Atoms
|
|
Atoms of a given element are identical in what
|
size, mass, and other properties.
|
|
Cannot be subdivided created or destroyed
|
Atoms
|
|
Atoms of different elements combine in simple whole-number ratios to form
|
chemical compounds
|
|
Atoms are combined, seperated, or rearranged
|
Chemical reactions
|
|
smallest particle of element that retains the chemical properties of that element
|

|
|
very small region located at the center of an atom
|
Nucleus
|
|
