What are LDFs (London dispersion forces).
5 parts of Dalton's atomic theory- which have changed?
1)All elements are composed of small particles [atoms]
2)All atoms of the same element have the same mass; atoms of different elements have different masses
3)Atoms only combine in small, whole number ratios
4)In chemical reactions, atoms are combined, separated or rearranged.
5)(implied) Atoms cannot be subdivided, created or destroyed.
Another name for a solution.
