Answer: Option (C) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Carbon element has 4 valence electrons and it has a unique ability to combine with different elements.

Also, carbon element is the basis of life as organic molecules are responsible for life an individual.

And, every organic compound contains carbon atom as the central element.  

Also, carbon has the ability to form long chains which is known as catenation property.

Thus, we can conclude that carbon element is able to combine in many ways with different elements and is therefore considered the basis of life.

Mass has to do with how many particles
Ganezh [65]

The law of definite proportions agrees with Dalton atomic theory.

What is Dalton atomic theory?

It state that all matters is made of very tiny particles called atom. atoms are individual particles which can not be created or be destroyed in a chemical reactions. Atoms of given elements are identical in mass and chemical properties. Atoms of

different elements have different masses and chemical properties.

The law of definite proportions also known as proust's law ,state that a chemical compound contain the same proportion of elements by mass.this law is one of the stoichiometry .

Thus ,

This is the reason why it is agrees with dalton atomic theory.

The answer would be "false" or the second option. A opinion is what you think on a certain subject and science is full of facts and opinions of other scientist which would mean your using someone else for your opinion just remember opinions is what you think about a subject and you can't use science for your opinion.

Hope this helps!
