The Three Basic Laws Of Chemis
John Dalton was born in 1766 and died in 1844. Around 1803 he developed the first atomic theory of matter. He was a meteorologist and was very important to study of chemistry. Dalton discovered the three basic laws of chemistry. The law of conservation of mass, The law of definite proportions, and The law of multiple proportions.
The law of conservation of mass was first stated by Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. It was a milestone in the development in …showed first 75 words of 253 total…

The law of multiple proportions was formulated by Dalton himself and was crucial to the establishment of atomic theory. It applies to when two elements form more than one compound. When one element combines with another to form more than one compound the ratio of the mass of the elements are simple whole-number ratios of each other. For example, in CO and in CO2, the oxygen-to-carbon ratios are 16:12 and 32:12.
