    Democritus

    Democritus
    He discovered the atom and he thought if you cut something continuously you won't be able to cut it anymore and you wont be able to see it.

  • Dalton

    Dalton
    He discovered that matter is made of tiny, little particles.
    The method he used to make his discovery was scientific experiments.He thought that the atoms were arranged in different combination to make different compounds.

  • Thomson

    Thomson
    He discovered that atoms have electrons and are much more smaller than atoms.
    Thomson began to investigate rays that occured when electricty way passed through a vacum in a glass tube.

  • Rutherford

    Rutherford
    Rutherford discovered that atoms have things called nucleus in the middle of the atom.
    They method he used to figure this out was the gold foil ecperiment,

  • Bohr

    Bohr
    He discovered that there was a nucleus in the middle of the atom while eletrons were orbiting around the nucleus.The method he used to make his discovery was doing experiments from a tube.He thought they looked like plants orbiting around.DeWitt, Tyler.

  • Heisenberg and Schrodinger

    Heisenberg and Schrodinger
    He dicovered that electrons were not orbiting but buzzing around the atom.
    He got the information form Bohr and used mathematical models.He thought they looked like fly's flying around.
