thank you
hope it helpsss
Answer:
This would support Dalton's postulates that proposed the atoms are indivisible because no small particles are involved.
Explanation:
Experiment using the gas discharge tube by J.J Thomson led to the discovery of cathode rays which are now known as electrons.
Primarily, Thomson's experiment led to the discovery of cathode rays, electrons, as subatomic particles.
If the size of the atoms observed at the cathode is the same as that of the rays,we can conclude that the particles of the rays are the simplest form of matter we can have. This would suggest that the atom is indeed the smallest indivisible particle of a matter according to Dalton.
