Dalton's Theory was that all elements are made up of atoms that cant be divided or destroyed, all atoms of the same element are alike, atoms of different elements are different,
-
Thomson's theory was that the atom is made up of electrons surrounded by a soup of positive charge to balance the electrons' negative charges, like plums surrounded by pudding.
-
Rutherford's theory was that the atom is a tiny, dense, positively charged core called a nucleus, that electrons move around at a distance much like planets revolving around the Sun.
-
Bohr's theory was that electrons assume only certain orbits around the nucleus, each orbit has an energy associated with it, and light is released when an electron jumps from a higher orbit to a lower orbit and absorbed when it jumps from a lower to higher orbit.
-
Schrodinger's theory is the same as Bohr's except it predicts the odds of the location of the electron.
