Which of the following is NOT part of Dalton's Atomic Theory? Group of answer choicesEach element is composed of tiny indestructible particles called atoms.All atoms of a given element have the same mass and other properties that distinguish them from the atoms of other elements.Atoms combine in simple, whole-number ratios to form compounds.Most of the atom's mass and all of its positive charge is contained in a small core called the nucleus.All of the above are part of the atomic theory.
Question
Which of the following is NOT part of Dalton's Atomic Theory? Group of answer choicesEach element is composed of tiny indestructible particles called atoms.All atoms of a given element have the same mass and other properties that distinguish them from the atoms of other elements.Atoms combine in simple, whole-number ratios to form compounds.Most of the atom's mass and all of its positive charge is contained in a small core called the nucleus.All of the above are part of the atomic theory.
Solution
The statement "Most of the atom's mass and all of its positive charge is contained in a small core called the nucleus." is NOT part of Dalton's Atomic Theory. This concept was introduced later by Ernest Rutherford in his nuclear model of the atom. Dalton's Atomic Theory did not include the internal structure of an atom.
