Answer:
John Dalton
Explanation:
John Dalton in 1808 suggested that all matter consists of tiny particles called atoms and that the atoms of a specific element are identical.
He postulated the Dalton's atomic theory which has the following important parts;
- All matters consists of indivisible particles called atoms
- Atoms of the same element are similar and are different from atoms of other elements.
- Atoms can neither be created nor destroyed.
- Atoms combine in simple whole ratios to form compounds.
Neutralization reactions are the reactions type which form salts.
Explanation:
Salts are formed by ionic bonds when the oxidation states of anions and cations are equal and have opposite signs. So one should be highly electronegative in nature and another should be highly electropositive in nature. So the electropositive element will be ready to give electrons and the electronegative element will be ready to accept all the electrons given by the electropositive element. As a whole the compound will be neutrally charged by adding of equal number of positively charged and negatively charged ions.
The reduction or addition of electrons will be occurring in cations and the oxidation or removal of electrons will be occurring in anions.
So the salt formation is based on neutralization reactions.
The flow of electricity is an electric current. A path that an electric current follows is a circuit. A battery supplies energy to move electricity through a circuit.
