The dawn of the nineteenth century saw a drastic shift from the dominance of French chemistry to first English-, and, later, German-influenced chemistry. Lavoisier s dualistic views of chemical composition and his explanation of combustion and acidity were landmarks but hardly made chemistry an exact science. Chemistry remained in the nineteenth century basically qualitative in its nature. Despite the Newtonian dream of quantifying the forces of attraction between chemical substances and compiling a table of chemical affinity, no quantitative generalization emerged. It was Dalton s chemical atomic theory and the laws of chemical combination explained by it that made chemistry an exact science. [Pg.28]

The closer followers of Newton took up serious efforts to deal with the forces between the unseen particles, and though their efforts continued with great loyalty to the Newtonian ideal, none produced much of utility for chemistry. Nor did these efforts form a progressive step on which John Dalton later built his successful chemical atomic theory. Dalton owed little to anyone other than Newton himself, and here probably less than he thought. [Pg.237]

John Dalton, regarded by most ehemists as the originator of the first scientifically fruitful chemical atomic theory, lived and worked in Manchester, England, for much of his life. Several commemorations of Dalton can be found in Manchester, from an unobstrusive plaque on the site where Dalton s laboratory once stood to a bronze statue outside the John Dalton building of Manchester Metropolitan University. [Pg.101]

While Lavoisier undoubtedly laid the foundations for the rapid rise of chemistry in the nineteenth century, his work was supported by that of other French chemists both before and after him.247 Without the Lavoisierian notion of the chemical element, it is unlikely that the chemical atomic theory and the laws of chemical combination would have been so widely accepted. However, a new perspective on the history of the concept of the chemical compound as the basis of modem chemistry suggests that it began long before Lavoisier and belongs to a different line of development involving the notion of chemical affinity .248-250... [Pg.32]

In the early years of the nineteenth century, the new chemistry began to bear fruit on both sides of the Channel,270 as well as in other countries, notably in Sweden. The chemical atomic theory proposed by Dalton and developed by Berzelius led to the formulation of the stoichiometric laws of chemical combination and the diligent search for accurate atomic weights. The important link between atoms and electrical charges in the early years of the nineteenth century enabled a new interpretation of chemical combination and the theory of valency. Significant improvements in... [Pg.33]

What Lavoisier had said about the unknowability of ultimate elements and the distinction between chemical species and physical atoms continued to trouble a lot of chemists long after the publication of Daltons ideas in the early 180os. Was it possible to reject Daltons chemical atomic theory while adopting everything else that he offered A significant minority of Daltons con-... [Pg.86]

We will first study the particles that make up atoms and the basic structure of atoms. Then we will take a look at the quantum mechanical theory of atoms and see how this theory describes the arrangement of the electrons in atoms. Current atomic theory is considerably less than complete. Even so, it is a powerful tool that helps us describe the forces holding atoms in chemical combination with one another. [Pg.177]
