  • The Alchemists
    500 BCE

    The Alchemists

    Dalton's most important contribution to science was his theory that matter is composed of atoms of differing weights and combine in simple ratios by weight. he also wanted to be the creator.
  • Democritus
    442 BCE

    Democritus

    A greek philosopher who held that everything is composed of "atoms," which are physically, but not geometrically, indivisible; that between atoms, there lies empty space; that atoms are indestructible
