-
Stated his belief in the atomic nature of elements
-
proposed an atoomic theory with spherical solid atoms based upon measurable quantities of mass. He also developed the law of multiple proportions.
-
Stated that equal volumes of gases, under identical conditions, have the same number of molecules.
-
Discoved that cathode rays consist of electrons. He built a cathode ray tube to to test the rays in a magnetic field and an electric field.
-
Suggests that radiation comes in discrete amounts.
-
He was the first to obtain an accurate measurement of an electron's charge. He did this by conducting the oil drop experiment
-
Constructs a theory of atomic structure bassed on atomic ideas.
-
Predicted the existence of the Neutron.
-
Confirms that protons are particles by discovering the quantum nature of x-rays.
-
developes wave mechanics. This describes the behavior of quantum systems for bosons.
-
Makes the uncertainty principle which is "The more you know about a particles energy, the less you know about the time of the energy, and vice versa. "
-
Found the first evidence of the neutron.
-
Discovers the antiparticle "positron". He says that they are exactly like electrons but positively charged.
-
Mike studied the effect of electricity on solutions and developed the laws of electrolysis
-
Found out that the neutron had no charge and had the same mass as the proton.
