Atomic Structure
The basic structure of an atom is defined as the component-level of atomic structure of an atom. Precisely speaking an atom consists of three major subatomic particles which are protons, neutrons, and electrons. Many theories have been stated for explain…
Shape of the D Orbital
Shapes of orbitals are an approximate representation of boundaries in space for finding electrons occupied in that respective orbital. D orbitals are known to have a clover leaf shape or dumbbell inside where electrons can be found.

Chapter 2, Problem 2.50QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The law of constant composition is considered a scientific law, whereas Dalton’s view of the atomic structure of matter is considered a scientific theory is to be stated.

Concept introduction: According to law of constant composition, no matter how pure compound is formed it always contains the same mass proportion for the same elements.

Dalton’s atomic theory is based on the law of conservation of mass and law of constant composition. Dalton explained the law of constant composition by using the idea of atoms.

To determine: The law of constant composition is considered a scientific law whereas Dalton’s view of the atomic structure of matter is considered a scientific theory.
