Which scientist proposed the concept of atomic mass?
- AAvogadro
- BGay Lussac
- CProust
- DDalton
✓
Answer
- Proust
Explanation:
The concept of atomic mass was proposed by William Prout. Early atomic mass theory was proposed by the English chemist William Prout in a series of published papers in 1815 and 1816. Known as Prout's Law, Prout suggested that the known elements had atomic weights that were whole number multiples of the atomic mass of hydrogen.
