How did the discovery of isotopes help to lead to a revised model of atomic structure?

Chemistry

Dalton postulated that atoms of the same elements had the same mass while atoms of different elements had different masses. 

The discovery of isotopes revealed that atoms of the same element did not necessarily have same masses, they could have different masses.

Therefore, the modern periodic table that we use nowadays contains the average atomic mass of all the isotopes found for a given element.

A binding protein binds to a ligand l with a kd of 400 nm what is the concentration of ligand when y is 0.25
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

The answer is 7600 nm.

Explanation:

As, Y = 0.25 = [ L ÷ (400 + (L)]

0.95 x 400 + 0.25 [ L] = [ L ]

380.25  = [ L ] - 0.95 [ L ]

              = 0.05 [L]

[L] = 380 ÷ 0.05 = 7600nm

Why is Dalton credited with proposing the first atomic theory if Democritus was talking about atoms almost 2,200 years earlier?
german
Democritus *suggested* the existence of the atom, that everything was made up of tiny particles, but wasn't really able to get more specific than that. Dalton also theorized that everything was made up of indivisible particles, but went further basing his theory on actual scientific principles, such as the Law of Conservation of Mass and the Law of Constant Composition. He also said that atoms weren't created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, just rearranged.  There's more to it than that, but basically, Dalton's theory was based more on science while Democritus' theory was too general to be useful in chemical situations.
