You will learn about "Dalton's Atomic Theory" in this video. John Dalton was an English chemist who is very well known today for his work in the development of atomic theory. Let us learn the postulates of Dalton's atomic theory. All matter, whether an element, a compound or a mixture are made up of very tiny particles called atoms. All atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass and chemical properties. Atoms of different elements differ in size, mass and chemical properties. Atoms are indivisible particles which can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. Atoms combine together in fixed whole number ratios to form compounds. In a chemical reaction, atoms only get rearranged. An atom of an element does not change into the atom of another element.
NSDL is the nation's online portal for education and research on learning in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics.
The National Science Digital Library has a wealth of high quality digital resources to teach almost any topic in K-12 math and science. NSDL has constructed the following collections of "resource packs" for teaching to particular K12 subject areas, drawing resources from NSDL Pathways and other NSDL projects, and gathering these topical resource sets into a single location.

In their May 2015 Scientific American article "Cellular Small Talk," Dale W. Laird, Paul D. Lampe and Ross G. Johnson report on recent discoveries showing that the disruption of cellular structures called gap junctions can cause various diseases.
