The Greeks idea of the atom was that is was a small particle, indivisible.
-
Dalton thought that atoms where solid spheres. Atoms cannot be divided into smaller pieces.
-
Crooke developed the CRT, Cathode Ray Tube. The glass tube had two pieces of metal called electrodes that had a positive charge and a negative charge.
-
Thomson discovered electrons and protons. The atom is very small mass of positive matter with negatively charged electrons embedded in the positive substance.
-
He thought Negatively charged electrons occupy the space around the nucleus. Bohr came up with the orbit theroy. 1st orbit - 2; 2nd orbit 8; 3rd orbit 8.
-
Werner Heisneberg discovered the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle which states that the momentum and postion of a particle cannot be simultaneously measured with high precision.
-
Rutherford discovered the nucleus and that it was positive. You can’t just make something you have to run test on it before it becomes something real.
