Why is the atomic theory a theory and not a law?

A theory is the best possible explanation based on all existing evidence.
A theory is a pattern in nature.
O A theory does not change.
O A theory is more important than a law.

A law in physics and chemistry is a description of what is going on. For instance, newton's law of motion helps us find out an objects acceleration if we know its mass and the force applied. The theory of gravity on the other hand is the best guess we make as to why objects with mass are attracted to one another.

Theories change over time if new evidence is found that contradicts the old theory. Saying "a theory is more important than a law" is subjective, and I would argue that both are equally important in their own way.
