Daltons Theory (6 parts)
-matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms
-atoms are indivisible and indestructable
-atoms of a given element are identical in size, mass, and chemical properties
-atoms of specific elements are different thatn those of other elements
-in a chemical reaction, atoms separate, combine and/or rearrange

DOB: 12/18/1856
DOD: 8/30/1940
country of origin: England
He created the cathode ray
He found out that they were almost all negative, or beta particles. He also determined the charge to mass ratio and came up with the idea that an atom was like plum pudding (hence the name of his plum pudding model)

He determined the charge carried by an electron, using the "falling-drop method". He also proved that this quantity was the same for all electrons (1910)
