Explanation

The statement "To every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction" is Newton's Third Law of Motion.

This law states that for every interaction between two objects, a pair of forces is produced—these forces are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, acting on the interacting objects.

Explanation

John Dalton is considered the 'Father of Modern Atomic Theory.

He raised the atomic theory that acted as an explanation of the following two laws.

Law of conservation of mass – According to the law, mass can neither be destroyed nor created in any chemical reaction.

Explanation

Radioactivity was discovered by Henri Becquerel in 1896.

They discovered radioactivity proving that the uranium emitted radiation without an external source of energy such as the Sun

Marie Curie with her husband Pierre Curie, coined the term radioactivity.

In 1903, Henry Becquerel shared the Nobel Prize for Physics with Pierre and Marie Curie

Ernest Rutherford did many experiments studying the properties of radioactive decay (alpha, beta, and gamma)
