Question 15 • TX-Physics B

Which statement is part of Dalton's atomic theory?

Answer
A
Matter is composed of small particles called atoms.
B
Atoms can be divided into their subatomic particles.
C
Atoms are able to be seen with proper spectroscopy equipment.
D
Chemical reactions can change atoms from one type to another.

Explanation

Dalton’s atomic theory states that all matter is made of tiny particles called atoms. Dalton also viewed atoms as indivisible and said chemical reactions rearrange atoms rather than change one type of atom into another, so B and D are not part of his theory. The correct statement is “Matter is composed of small particles called atoms.”
