2. That matter is composed of small indestructible particles.

Explanation:

Dalton's atomic theory states:

• Matter is composed of atoms, which are the indestructible building blocks of matter and cannot be destroyed.

• All atoms of an element are identical.

• All atoms of different elements vary in size and mass.

• Compounds are produced through different whole number combinations of atoms.

• A chemical reaction is the rearrangement of atoms in the reactant and product compounds.
