(N/A) The first atomic theory was proposed by John Dalton in $1808$.
According to this theory:
$(i)$ Matter consists of indivisible atoms.
$(ii)$ All atoms of a given element have identical properties,including identical mass. Atoms of different elements differ in mass.
$(iii)$ Compounds are formed when atoms of different elements combine in a fixed ratio.
$(iv)$ Chemical reactions involve the reorganization of atoms. Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Two elements $X$ and $Y$ have atomic weights of $14$ and $16$. They form a series of compounds $A, B, C, D$ and $E$ in which for the same amount of element $X$,the amounts of $Y$ are present in the ratio $1 : 2 : 3 : 4 : 5$. If the compound $A$ has $28$ parts by weight of $X$ and $16$ parts by weight of $Y$,then the compound $C$ will have $28$ parts by weight of $X$ and:
