Tell which of the following statements of Dalton's atomic theory is in disagreement with the existence of isotopes: 1. Each element is made of tiny particles called Aatoms. 2. The atoms of a given element are identical: the atoms of a different elements are different in some fundamental way. 3. Chemical compounds are formed when atoms combine with each other. A given compound always has the same relative numbers and types of atoms. 4. Chemical reactions involve reorganization of the atoms - changes in the way they are combined. The atoms themselves are not changed in a chemical reaction
Which statement about the atom's nucleus is correct? O The nucleus is made of protons and neutrons and has a negative charge. The nucleus is made of protons and neutrons and has a positive charge. O The nucleus is made of electrons and has a positive charge. O The nucleus is made of electrons and has a negative charge.
Why are the atomic masses on the periodic table not whole numbers? They are a weighted average of the major isotopes for that element neutrons are weird O because of the small mass of electrons being measured O because chermerstry is complicated
