How did atomic theory develop and change?

Chemistry

The atomic theory started with Democritus, who stated that all space was made up of indivisible particles called atoms, though Aristotles refuted that statement by saying that matter didn’t exist, he believed in the four elements: air, fire, water, and earth. Then came Dalton, who revived Democritus’s ideas and proposed the law of multiple proportions, he revived the idea that all space was made of atoms. Soon after, J.J Thompson discovered the electron by using cathode rays. Max Planck developed the quantum theory by stating that electromagnetic radiation could only be emitted in quantized form (later called quanta). Einstein furthered this idea with studies of light. Robert Millikan eventually measured the charge of a single electron. Ernest Rutherford used a gold foil experiment and discovered the nuclei, considering his alpha particles were deflected by some object. Niels Bohr made the atomic model with electrons spinning around an atom’s nucleus, Erwin Schrodinger describes how electrons have wave like properties. James Chadwick then discovers the neutron!

Weight of one mole of carbon = 12.01 g Weight of one mole of oxygen = 16.00 g The molecular weight (gram formula weight) for CO
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

28.01g

Explanation:

Given the weight of one mole of Cabon as 12.01g and that of oxygen as 16.00g.

The molecular weight of a compound can be gotten by adding the molar weights of the elements that constitutes the compound .

The molecular weight of the compound CO is therefore

equal to the sum of the weight of both elements.

That’s = 12.01g + 16.00g

= 28.01g

Therefore, the molecular weight of CO is 28.01g
