They believed the atom was formed from the principles of Mercury & Sulfur. -
He helped create the atomic model, which is atoms are geometric forms that break into triangles. Interestingly Plato would later teach Aristotle. -
He helped create the very FIRST atomic model, and was an important discoverer in developing the Atomic Theory. -
Robert Boyle was an Alchemist. He discovered gas volume decreases with increased pressure. -
He helped found todays modern day chemistry. He helped discover that matter is made up of atoms, "Law of Conservation of Mass." -
This model showed how an atom looks - specifically in a sphere. It was created by John Dalton. -
He discovered Daltons Law - An ideal gas law only for real gases. He also helped create a model for atomic interactions. -
Amedeo helped with the atomic theory, through discovering how many gases are not just composed of 1 atom, but 2. Avogadro was the very first scientist to discover elements in molecule form. -
Dmitri Mendeleev created the periodic table of elements. This helped arrange all the chemical elements. Interestingly Mendeleev was Russian. -
He discovered the electron in 1897. From this the structure of the atom was proposed. Interestingly Thompson married one of his students. -
These scientists helped come up with the idea that certain radioactive particles cause atoms to break down and release radiation. This helped show us more ways of how atoms work. Interestingly they both share a Nobel Prize. -
This shows how atoms can have a negative charge. This model was created by J.J. Thomson's. -
He discovered the elementary charge of an electron. -
He shut down the idea that all atoms were indestructible. He also discovered atoms nucleus and protons. Interestingly he has the element Rutherfordium named in his behalf. -
He was one of the main creators who helped propose the model of the atom. -
This represents Atoms like a solar system; the center is a nucleus (like a sun), while electrons orbit around the nucleus (like planets). This model was introduced by Neils Bohr. -
He helped with the discovery of the Moseley periodic table. Interestingly Mosely was in the army during World War 1. -
He discovered the mathematical atom. He helped prove the true existence of atoms, using a simple microscope. -
The Electron Cloud Model is helpful to see the patterns and behaviors of electrons. It was created by Erwin Schrödinger and Werner Heisenberg. -
James Chadwich importance stems from the fact that he was the discover of the neutron. Chadwich received a Nobel Prize.
