The question is incomplete, the complete question is:

Which statements are consistent with Dalton's atomic theory as it was originally stated? Why?

a. Sulfur and oxygen atoms have the same mass.

b. All cobalt atoms are identical.

c. Potassium and chlorine atoms combine in a 1:1 ratio to form potassium chloride.

d. Lead atoms can be converted into gold.

The correct options are b) and c).

Explanation:

Some of the postulates of Dalton's atomic theory are:

For the given options:

For a:

The statement is inconsistent with the theory as no two elements can have the same mass. Only atoms of the same element can have the same mass.

This is consistent with the theory as atoms of the same element are identical.

This is consistent with the theory as atoms combine in a simple whole number ratio.

The statement is inconsistent with the theory as atoms of one element cannot be changed to atoms of other element.

Hence, the correct options are b) and c).

the electrical  conductivity  of asolution  of an electrolyte is measured by determining the resistance of thesolution  between two flat or cylindrical electrodes separated by a fixed distance.
