  • Democristus
    400

    Democristus

    500 B.C.
    He said that all matter constist of extremly small particles that could NOT be divided.
    He came up with it by talking about it with other people.
  • Aristotle
    450

    Aristotle

    He said that there was no limit to how many times matter could be divided
    He came up with this by talking about this with other people
  • John Dalton

    John Dalton

    He concluded that a gas consists of individual particles
    The way he proved this was he did expriments and figured out that no matter wht a gas has a fixed composition
  • Ernest Rutherford

    Ernest Rutherford

    He discovered that uranium emits fast moving particles that have fast-moving particles that have a positive charged.
    He did an expriment to prove it
  • Ernest Marsden

    Ernest Marsden

    He did the gold foil experiment.He did this experiment to see what the reaction the alpha particles would have to gold foil
  • Neils Bohr

    Neils Bohr

    He said that electrons move in spherical orbits at a fixed distances from the nucleus.
  • J.J. Thomson

    J.J. Thomson

    He said that the beam was a stream of charged partclies that interacted with the air in the tube and caused the air to glow.
    How he came up with this by doing an expriment. In his exprirment he placed a pair of charged metal plates on either side of a glass tube. The plates caused the beam to deflect, or bend, from its striaght path
  • Hantaro Nagaoka

    Hantaro Nagaoka

    He thought that electrons revolve around the positively charged center of the atom like the rings of Saturn.
  • Louis de Broglie

    Louis de Broglie

    He said that moving particles like electrons have some properties of waves.
  • Erwin Schrodinger

    Erwin Schrodinger

    He devolped mathematical equations to describe the motion of electrons in atoms.
  • James Chadwick

    James Chadwick

    He confirms the existence of newtons, wich have no charge.
