Chemistry events/discoveries

By flamme
  • John Dalton

    John Dalton

    (1766-1844)
    All matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms
    Atoms cannot be created, divided into smaller particels, or destroyed
    In a chemical reaction, atoms are separated, combined, or rearranged
  • First car

    First car

    Easier way to drive around places and stopped using horses. Could get to farther places. Haul grain
  • Antonie Lavoiser

    Antonie Lavoiser

    He compiled a list of elements known at the time. The list contained 23 elements.
  • Joeseph Proust

    Joeseph Proust

    He created elements from water. and he did definite proportions.
  • Arnadeo Avogadros

    Arnadeo Avogadros

    he determined the volume of one mole of a gas.
  • J.J. thomson

    J.J. thomson

    did a series of experiments with cathode ray tubes to determine the ratio of its charge to its mass. Thomson was able to determine the charge to mass ratio. The conclusion was shocking becasue they found out that there were atoms smaller then hydrogen.
  • Abraham Lincoln Assassination

    Abraham Lincoln Assassination

    His death came after the most important battle in the U.S. And after his famous speech.
  • First Tractor

    First Tractor

    The first ones used were steam powered and used on farms.
  • Henri Becquerel

    Henri Becquerel

    He helped with the discovery of radioactivity.
  • First Case Tractor

    First Case Tractor

    First Case TractorThat year they came out with a new threshing machine and their first gasoline powered tractor.
  • Max Planck

    Max Planck

    He figured out matter can gain or lose energy only in small, specific amounts called Quanta.
  • Democritus

    Democritus

    (460-370 B.C.)
    Matter is composed of empty space through which atoms move
    Atoms are solid. homogenous, indestructible, and indivisilble
    Different kinds of atoms have different sizes and shapes
  • Aristotle

    Aristotle

    (384-322 B.C.)
    One of the most influential philosophers
    most of his writings have been lost through the ages
  • William Crooks

    William Crooks

    He came up with the cathode ray fromradiation in a tube. These are used in televisions and computers.
  • Robert Millikan

    Robert Millikan

    He determined the charge of an electron. So good was his experiment that he was within 1% of the current value. He calculated the mass of the electron.
  • Ernest Rutherford

    Ernest Rutherford

    He studied how positiely cahrges particles interacted with solid matter. He conducted an experiment to see if alpha particles would be deflected as they passed through a thin foil of gold.
  • Henry Moseley

    Henry Moseley

    He came up with the atomic number which is the same amount of protons are in the atom.
  • Niels Bohr

    Niels Bohr

    Proposed a Quantum model for hydrogen atom. He proposed that the hydrogen atom has only certain allowable energy states.
  • Louis De Broglie

    Louis De Broglie

    He proposed an idea that accounted for the fixed energy levels of Bohr's model. he proposed that can particles matter including electrons behave like waves.
  • Werner Heisenburg

    Werner Heisenburg

    concluded that it is impossible to make any measurment on an object without distrurbing the object at least a little.
  • Erwin Schrodinger

    Erwin Schrodinger

    Schrodinger derived an equation that treated the hydrogen atom's electron as a wave. It seemed to apply equally well to other atoms.
  • James Chadwick

    James Chadwick

    He showed that the nucleus also contained another subatomic particle, a neutral particle called the neutron.
  • First Snowmobile

    First Snowmobile

    First snowmobileA new vehicle to get around in the snow with very useful.
  • Albert Einstein

    Albert Einstein

    He came up with the general idea of relatively. He laid the foundation the photon theory of light.
  • Madame Curie

    Madame Curie

    She helped with radiactivty. Techniques for isolating radioactive iosotops. She also discovered 2 elements polonium and radium.
  • Assassination of John F. Kennedy

    Assassination of John F. Kennedy

    Assassination Bad time in America.
  • Polaris First Snowmobile

    Polaris First Snowmobile
