See explanation
Explanation:
Dalton's atomic theory furnished us with a basis to discuss the theory of atoms. However, not all his ideas holds up under the scruitiny of morden science.
He postulated that atoms were 'indivisible' the discovery of subatomic particles indeed show that there are smaller particles than atoms.
His postulation that atoms can neither be created nor destroyed does not hold water today because atoms are being created in nuclear reactors.
He said that atoms of all elements are exactly alike. Today we know there are isotopes of elements which are not exactly alike.
We can see that the Dalton's atomic theory did not take cognisance of the important role of subatomic particles in studying the structure of the atom. Modern atomic theory tries to look at the importance of these particles in the understanding the structure of the atom.
