A documentary about Dalton Trumbo called Trumbo was produced in 2007 incorporating elements of the play as well as footage of Dalton Trumbo and a panoply of interviews.

For example, Dalton assumed that water's formula was HO, giving the atomic weight of oxygen as eight times that of hydrogen, instead of the modern value of about 16.

The former — whose screenplay was written by the blacklisted Dalton Trumbo, disguised by a front — features a bank holdup sequence shown in an unbroken take over three minutes long that proved widely influential.

The law of definite proportions contributed to, and was placed on a firm theoretical basis by, the atomic theory that John Dalton promoted beginning in 1803, which explained matter as consisting of discrete atoms, that there was one type of atom for each element, and that the compounds were made of combinations of different types of atoms in fixed proportions.

His ministry there became embroiled in controversy when Timothy Dalton was sent to the town as " teaching assistant " by the Boston church after New Hampshire was absorbed by Massachusetts in 1641.

But Dalton and other chemists of the time had not considered that some elements occur in monatomic form ( like Helium ) and others in diatomic form ( like Hydrogen ), or that water was H < sub > 2 </ sub > O, not the simpler and more intuitive HO — thus the atomic weights presented at the time were varied and often incorrect.

The first table of atomic weights was published by John Dalton ( 1766 – 1844 ) in 1805, based on a system in which the atomic weight of hydrogen was defined as 1.

Around 1790 Dalton seems to have considered taking up law or medicine, but his projects were not met with encouragement from his relatives – Dissenters were barred from attending or teaching at English universities – and he remained at Kendal until, in the spring of 1793, he moved to Manchester.

Mainly through John Gough, a blind philosopher and polymath to whose informal instruction he owed much of his scientific knowledge, Dalton was appointed teacher of mathematics and natural philosophy at the " New College " in Manchester, a dissenting academy.

In 1800, Dalton became a secretary of the Manchester Literary and Philosophical Society, and in the following year he orally presented an important series of papers, entitled " Experimental Essays " on the constitution of mixed gases ; on the pressure of steam and other vapours at different temperatures, both in a vacuum and in air ; on evaporation ; and on the thermal expansion of gases.

After describing experiments to ascertain the pressure of steam at various points between 0 and 100 ° C ( 32 and 212 ° F ), Dalton concluded from observations on the vapour pressure of six different liquids, that the variation of vapour pressure for all liquids is equivalent, for the same variation of temperature, reckoning from vapour of any given pressure.

Dalton provided no indication in this first paper how he had arrived at these numbers.
