Hello student
Please find below the answer to your mentioned question.
Maharshi Kanada explained the atomic theory of matter.
He gave the idea that matter consists of indivisible units called atoms which is the smallest particle that can not be destroyed and retains in its original form under all situations.
The Kanad’s atomic theory has points as -
1. Everything can be subdivided.
2. The sub-division after time results in the creation of parmanu (atoms) which are the smallest things.
3. Parmanu is indivisible and it can not be further divided. So, everything can-not be subdivided.
4. The atom is eternal. This means it is indestructible.
5. It is the basis for all material science.
6. It is invisible to the naked eye.
7. Parmanu which is today known as an atom can have two states - state of motion and absolute rest.
