Does data from mass spectrometry indicate that modern scientists have made modifications to Dalton''s model? Justify.

John Dalton was a scientist who proposed that all matter consists of atoms. At this stage, no one had yet discovered neutrons and the nucleus. As a result, Dalton's model consisted of a single atom i.e. the atom was the smallest object.
A mass spectrometer is an instrument that is able to see what is inside an atom. Scientists have been able to prove that the item is not the smallest object in the world. Atoms are made up of smaller objects called protons, neutrons and electrons.
We can, therefore, safely conclude that data from mass spectrometry has helped modern scientists to make modifications to Dalton's model.

Leya [2.2K]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

The rate constant of a certain reaction is known to obey the Arrhenius equation, and to have an activation energy Ea = 71.0 kJ/mol . If the rate constant of this reaction is 6.7 M^(-1)*s^(-1) at 244.0 degrees Celsius, what will the rate constant be at 324.0 degrees Celsius?

Answer: The rate constant at 324°C is $61.29M^{-1}s^{-1}$
