-
Hypothesized atoms can not be destroyed, differ in size, shape and temperature, are always moving and are invisible.
-
Along with MArie and Pierre Curie he also had discovery with radioactvity.
he helped understanding of how dangerous radioactivity can actually be. -
Law of Conservstion
Matter can not be created or destroyed -
Contributed to electromagnetism and electrochemistry
Discovered electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism and electrolysis. -
Law of Definite Proportions
a compound is composed of exact proportion of elements by mass regardless of how the compound was formed. -
Atomic Theory
all matter is made up of atoms -
They are best know for their discovery of radioactivity. They discovered the elements radium and polonium.
They were married and became invested in their discovery
Without this discovery we would not have known how dangerous an unstable atom could really be. -
Suggested a model of the atomas a sphere of postive matter in which electrons are positioned by electrostatic forces.
-
He measured the charge of an electron using Milikan's oil-drop apparatus
-without it we would not know until much later that an elctrons charge was negative. -
An atom is a small positively charged nucleus surrounded by orbitting electrons.
We would never know that the nucleus was postively charged without this discovery -
Albert has done so many things for science but he impproved the fundamental statistical theory of heat
quantum of energy
LASER light amplification by stimulated emission of radiation. -
His ideas were the basis for the wave mechanics theory. realized electrons can act like particles and waves.
we ould not have the wave mechanics theory without Louis DeBroglie. -
discovered the neutron
without the neutron discovery we would not know that the neutrons is paired with protons in the nucleus and that it is neutral. -
Originated the Quantum Theory
we use the Quantum Theory now in the 2014 without his discovery we would not understand the theory of matter. -
He postulated the nuclear structure of the atom.
gold foil experiment -
pioneer in radioactivity and radiochemistry.
-
discovered nuclear fission
-
known for the discovery and investigation of ten transuranium elements
without him we would not know what they are. -
He delveloped a number of fundamental results in the field of Quantum Theory. Also his thoughts became the basis or the wave mechanics theory.
we use the quantum theory and are taught about it in science classes without him and his intelligent thoughts we would not have the theorys and proof we have today. -
He believed all substances were made out of fire, water, air and earth. Later he was proved wrong.
