-

Atoms are indivisible and indestructible, All atoms of a given element are identical in mass and properties, Compounds are formed by a combination of two or more different kinds of atoms, A chemical reaction is a rearrangement of atoms, and atoms cannot be created or destroyed.
-
Discovered the electron, Plum Pudding model, Atom was positively charged sphere, small electrons spread throughout. Cathode Ray Tube
-
Oil Drop Experiment help discover the mass and charge of an electron
-
Discovered the nucleus of the atom and said it was positive. He discovered the proton. Gold Foil experiment. Developed the nuclear model. Discovered that most of the atom is empty space with a really dense middle, which is the nucleus, the electrons are spread out.
-
Student of Rutherford, expanded on the nuclear model, discovered the electrons orbit the nucleus, Planetary Model.
-
Discovered the neutron, student of Ernest Rutherford, discovered the mass of proton and neutron are close.
-
Developed the Quantum Mechanical Model, theorized that the electrons don't orbit the nucleus, but that they are in electron clouds.
