What did John Dalton work out?
Remember to check for PROGRESS
Focus on Knowledge, Skills and Understanding
Success Criteria: You will show your learning by...
  1. There are millions of chemicals in the world.
  2. During the 1800s, John Dalton did experiments to break down chemicals until they could not be split any further.
  3. Dalton found some chemicals do not split into other chemicals, these are known as elements.
  4. Elements are made of only one type of particle.
  5. The type of particle determines the element (chemical).
  6. Dalton found some chemical do split into other chemicals, these are known as compounds.
  7. Compounds are made up of more than one type of particles.
  8. Dalton found compounds always split into the same proportions.
  9. SET HOMEWORK: Wordsearch

AFL/Key Questions:
  1. What are there more of, chemicals or elements?
    There are more chemicals than elements.
  2. What experiments did John Dalton carry out?
    John Dalton did experiments to break down chemicals until they could not be split any further.
  3. What are chemicals that can not be split into other chemicals called?
    Chemicals that do not split into other chemicals are known as elements.
  4. What is an element made of?
    An element is made of only one type of particle.
  5. What determines the element?
    The type of particle determines the element. Each element has a unique number of protons.
  6. What are chemicals called that are made of more than one element chemically bonded together?
    Chemicals made of more than element chemically bonded are known as compounds.
  7. What is a compound made up of?
    Compounds are made up of more than one type of particle.
  8. What did Dalton find out when he split compounds?
    Dalton found compounds always split into the same proportions.
