  2. Idea of the atom • The 5 main points of Dalton’s atomic theory: • Elements = particles called atoms • Atoms in same element are the same; Atoms in different elements are different • Atoms cant be destroyed/created • Atoms combine in elements  compound • chemical reactions=combined, separated or rearranged

  3. John Dalton • He was born on September 6th 1766 and he died on July 27th 1844 at the age of 78 • chemist, meteorologist and physicist • modern atomic theory • Quaker family in Eagles field • older brother named Jonathan • He was colour-blind

  4. Experiments/Area of Study • He was a chemist and a physicist • Famous for atomic theory of matter • elements = atoms = indestructible • 1 of thefathers of modern physical

  5. Major Scientific Contributions • famous for research on relativity of atom  hydrogen • book called “A New System of Chemical Philosophy”.  atomic weights • Daltonism= paper on colourblindness • Discovered butylene (alternative name for butene (C4 H8) and he determined the • determined the composition of ether
