  • The Alchemist
    500 BCE

    The Alchemist

    By breaking down the chemical composition of the 4 basic elements of its period.
  • Plato
    427 BCE

    Plato

    Introduced the atomic theory in which atoms are broken down mathematically
  • Deomocrtus
    400 BCE

    Deomocrtus

    Theorized that everything is made of small atoms
  • Aristotle
    384 BCE

    Aristotle

    Believed that all materials on earth aren't made of all atoms, but elements.
  • Robert Boyle

    Robert Boyle

    He helped develop a new definition of an element. Which was any substance that can be broken into 2 or more substances is not an element
  • Lavoisier

    Lavoisier

    Found that mass is conserved in a chemical reaction. Atoms aren't created or destroyed
  • John dalton

    John dalton

    His theory was the first complete attempt to describe all matter and its properties
  • Dimitri Mendeleev

    Dimitri Mendeleev

    He discovered that all known chemical elements were arranged in order of increasing atomic weight. Resulting the table is dis played with a pattern.
  • JJ Thomson

    JJ Thomson

    Discovered that all atoms contain tiny negatively charged electrons. (His method was the plum pudding method)
  • Curies

    Curies

    Conducted own experiments on rays. The ray was theorized and came from an atomic structure
  • Albert Einstein

    Albert Einstein

    He proud existence of atoms. And revolutionized all science through the use of atoms
  • Robert Millikan

    Robert Millikan

    His success was the determination of the charge carried by an electron.
  • Ernest Rutherford

    Ernest Rutherford

    Kept studies of radioactivity and the atom. And he discovered empty space in the atom, with concentrated mass in a central positively charged nucleus.
  • Neils Bohr

    Neils Bohr

    Proposed a theory for the hydrogen atom based on quantum theory. That energy transferred electron. Which move around the nucleus only in prescribed orbits
  • Henry G. J. Mosely

    Henry G. J. Mosely

    Proved that every element identity uniquely determined by the number of protons it has.
  • Werner Heisenberg

    Werner Heisenberg

    formulated mechanics for certain principles for the atom
