  • John dalton

    John dalton
    english chemist who proposed the atomic theory which stated that all matter composed of small invisible particles called atoms.
    Atomic theory.
  • Niels Bohrs

    Niels Bohrs
    A danish scientist who stated the electrons cloud only orbits around the nucleus.
    nobel prize in physics.
    bohr model.
  • Atomic theory of matter

    Atomic theory of matter
    John Dalton developed the first useful atomic theory of matter around 1803.
  • J.J. Thomson

    J.J. Thomson
    first to measure the electron developed the plum pudding model of the atom described the atom as a slighty sphrere with small electrons inside.
    discovered the neutron.
    discovered isotopes.
  • Plum Pudding model

    Plum Pudding model
    The plum pudding model was proposed in 1904 before the discovery of the Atomic Nucleus. In this model the atom is composed of electrons through G. J. Stoney proposed that atom of electricity called electrons. in1894. This model was disproved by the gold foil experiment.
  • Discovery of the subatomic particle.

    Discovery of the subatomic particle.
    Atoms wrer thought to be the smallest the division of matter until 1897 when j.j thompson discovered the electron through his work on cathode rays. A crookes tube is a sealed glass container in which 2 electrodes are separated by a vacuum. When a voltage is carried through the eletrodes, cathode rays are generated.
  • Ernest Rutherford

    gold foil experiment
    nobel prize in chemistry.
  • James Chadwick

    James Chadwick
    discovered the neutron
    nobel prize in physics.
    ernest rutherford was his academic advisor.
  • The neutron

    The neutron
    James chadwick used alpha particles and discovered a neutral atomic with a mass close to a proton.
  • Schrodinger

    Schrodinger
    Discovered the electron cloud.
    He identified the electron model as the probable location for moving eletrons.
  • Goil foil Experiment

    Goil foil Experiment
    A beam of Alpha particles generated by the radioactive decay of radium was directed normally into a sheet of very thin gold foil.
  • Democritus

    Democritus
    He said the universe is made of empty space and a nearly infinate number of invisible particles. He stated that atoms are indestructable and they will always be in motion. He was was in Adera, Thrace in 460 BC His main intersest were mathmatics,Astronomy, and Metaphysics.
