442
Democritus
Democritus-442 BC---Greek philosopher, who developed the atomic theory of the universe,His atomic theory anticipated the modern principles of the conservation of energy and the irreducibility of matter. -
Period: 500 to
Alchemist
AlChemists-500BC-1720--- develop the theory—that all metals are composed of mercury and sulfur and that it is possible to change base metals into gold -
Robert Boyles
one of the founder of moderne chemisrty -
Joseph Protust

Period: to
Amedeo Avogardo
made amedeao law and stated about gases density -
Lavoisier
Lavoisier-1777---French chemist, who is considered the founder of modern chemistry. Lavoisier clarified the concept of an element as a simple substance that could not be broken down by any known method of chemical analysis, and he devised a theory of the formation of chemical compounds from elements. -
Jöns Jacob Berzelius
created chemistry chemical notaion formula -
Coulomb
Coulomb-1780's---He explianed that like fluids repelled and unlike attracted,this was important in the development of the theory of absolute measurement, and had a great impact on electrical potential. -
Period: to
Michael Faraday
Faraday was specifically involved in the study of chlorine. He discovered two new compounds of chlorine and carbon. Plus he invented the bunsun burner. -
Becquerel
Becquerel-1896---Wilhelm Röntgen discovered X rays by observing the fluorescence they produced. -
J.J. Thompson
J.J. Thomson-1898---J.J Thompson was the first to discover the electron. -
Marie Curie
he Curies-1898---Pierre Curie and his wife Marie Curie stated that radioactive materials cause atoms to break down spontaneously, releasing radiation in the form of energy and subatomic particles. -
Max Planck
Max Planck-1900---In 1900 Planck stated that energy is radiated in small, discrete units, which he called quanta -
Werner Hiesenberg
created quantom mechanics -
John Dalton
John Dalton-1803---British chemist and physicist, who developed the atomic theory upon which modern physical science is founded.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. -
Albert Einstein
Albert Einstein-1905---Einstein was known as the creator of the special and general theories of relativity and for his intelligent hypothesis concerning the particle nature of light. -
Period: to
Robert Millikan
Robert Millikan-1908-1917---American physicist, best known for his work in atomic physics and major science, dealing with the fundamental constituents of the universe, the forces they exert on one another, and the results produced by these forces. -
Period: to

Geiger
Geiger-1925-----Geiger was the first scientist to explain DNA. -
Erwin Schroedinger
Erwin Schroedinger-1926---Schroedinger explained movement of an electron in an atom as a wave. -
Otto Hahn &Lise Meitner
Otto Hahn-1938---German physical chemist and Nobel laureate, best known for his contributions in the field of radioactivity.
Lise Meitner-1938---Austrian-Swedish physicist, who first identified nuclear fission. -
Murry Gell
Murry Gell-1964---United States physicist, noted for his classification of subatomic particles and his proposal of the existence of quarks. -
