How would atomists explain the difference between, say, chalk and cheese? how do they explain coming into being and passing away again?

Atomists would explain that chalk and cheese differ because they are made up of different atoms. This is because a certain kind of atoms for our sake we will call them atoms K mix bound together to form chalk and Atoms H form together to form cheese. They do not differ by our sense perception but by the atoms they are made up of. The atoms also differ from other objects by how tight they are bound.Soft bodied atoms are more flexible because there is more void in them.
They explain coming into being and passing away by using the same idea of atoms. When atoms come together and bound to each other they form a being and the being is therefore created. When atoms disperse and start to separate they are again passing away.

The role of women in the enlightenment is often debated and frequently overlooked. women during this era were not considered of equal status to men, and much of their work and effort was suppressed.[1] salons, coffeehouses, debating societies, academic competitions and print all became avenues for women to socialize, learn and discuss enlightenment ideas. these avenues furthered their roles in society and created stepping stones for future progress
