Question

what is the modern atomic theory

Answer 1

Matter consists of molecules. The chemical and physical properties depend upon the molecule type. Molecules are made of atoms. Atoms are made of protons, neutrons and electrons. Different types of atoms have different numbers of protons. There are about 110 types of atoms, but only about 90 are stable enough to occur naturally.
