Which statement best describes John Dalton's use of creativity in his work? He reinterpreted and retested Joseph Proust's results. He used a philosophy to conduct his experiment. He recorded his results as four parts of the atomic theory. He rejected Democritus's idea that matter was composed of atoms.

The correct statement is that,

'He reinterpreted and retested Joseph Proust's results'

Explanation:

John Dalton was an English chemist who contributed greatly to the field of Chemistry. He published his theory about atom in 1808.

Dalton was the first person to recognize a workable distinction between the fundamental particle of an element (atom) and that of a compound (molecule). The atomic theory generally summaries the laws of chemical composition which includes:

--> law of constant composition and

---> law of multiple proportions.

John Dalton was being creative in his work by reinterpretation and retesting of Joseph Proust's results. Joseph Proust was a French chemist that first discovered the law of constant composition in 1794. This means that many has started working on the atoms before John Dalton discovery.

From the previous works of Proust, he had studied tin oxides and found that their masses were either 88.1% tin and 11.9% oxygen or 78.7% tin and 21.3% oxygen (these were tin(II) oxide and tin dioxide respectively). Dalton retested and noted from these percentages that 100g of tin will combine either with 13.5g or 27g of oxygen; 13.5 and 27 form a ratio of

Dalton reinterpreted it by finding an atomic theory of matter that could elegantly explain this common pattern in chemistry – in the case of Proust’s tin oxides, one tin atom will combine with either one or two oxygen atoms. I hope this helps, thanks.

A.) He reinterpreted and retested Joseph Proust's results

Explanation:

the number of protons in the nucleus of a given element. has slight luster and conducts electricity at high temperatures like metal.but like a nonmetal,boron is brittle and does not conduct electricity well at low temperatures. in graphite, carbon is a soft,brittle solid.it is reflective,ductile,or malleable.

answer : one can design an experiment using a liquid and an additive that can be added to the liquid and observe the chemical changes in the reaction species.

one would need a beaker which is filled with a known amount of the liquid in which thermometer is placed to measure the temperature changes; after addition of the additive to the liquid solution one can note down the temperature change and find whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic in nature. by subtracting the initial temperature value with the final temperature one can find the temperature changes.

various combinations of liquid and additive can be used. liquid in this case can be a known quantity of water and additives can be epsom salt or without epsom salt the experiment can be conducted to notice the changes. water and ice, hydrogen peroxide and dry yeast, vinegar and baking soda,etc.
