Answer to Problem 51UTC
Solution:
- False
- True
- True
- False
Given:
Atoms of an element are identical to atoms of other elements.
Every element is made of atoms.
Atoms of different elements combine to form compound.
In a chemical reaction, some atoms disappear and new atoms appear
Explanation of Solution
- Dalton theory says that atoms of same element are identical in all respects, that is, size, shape and mass. So, the statement is inconsistent with Dalton theory.
- According to Dalton theory, all the matters are made up of atoms (which are indivisible). So, the statement is true.
- A compound is form by combination of atoms of different elements. So, the statement is consistent with Dalton theory
- According to Dalton theory, in a chemical reaction, combination, separation and rearrangement of atoms occur. So, the statement is inconsistent with Dalton theory.
Hence, all parts have been described.
- False
- True
- True
- False
