The 5 postulates of the atomic theory were developed by John Dalton in the early 19th century. Dalton's theory proposed that all matter is composed of small, indivisible particles called atoms, and that chemical reactions involve the rearrangement of these atoms.

Dalton formed a new atomic theory that the world had never seen before. 1. All matter consists of tiny particles. 2. Atoms are indestructable and unchangeable. 3. Elements are characterized by the mass of their atom. 4. When elements react, their atoms combine in simple, whole - number ratios. This was Dalton's four postulates on the atomic theory but one of them is incorrect.
There are only five recognized Euclid postulates.
Two postulates of Dalton's atomic theory are still scientifically accepted: the first being that elements are made up of tiny particles called atoms, and the second being that all atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties.
Dalton's postulate that atoms are indivisible has been disproved with the discovery of subatomic particles like protons, neutrons, and electrons. Additionally, his postulate that all atoms of the same element are identical has been disproved with the existence of isotopes.

The discovery of electrons showed that atoms were not indivisible as Dalton had proposed, but instead contained subatomic particles. This led to a revision of Dalton's postulate that atoms were the smallest, indivisible particles, as it became clear that atoms could be divided into even smaller components such as electrons.
