Discovery of the Atom

  • Dalton: Solid Sphere Model

    This model consist of negative charges embedded in a solid continuum of positive charges
  • Thompson: The Plum Pudding Model

    This model states electrons are more than two thousand times lighter than a hydrogen atom.
  • Rutherford: The Nuclear Model

    This model states electrons and protons are uniformly mixed throughout the atom
  • Bohr: The Bohr (Planetary) Model

    This model states electrons assume only certain orbits around the nucleus
  • Schrodinger: Quantum Mechanics Model

    the model show the distance from he nucleus that it would be most probable to find the electron
