Atomic Theory A scientific theory is a unifying explanation for a broad range of hypothesis and observations supported by testing. Democritus proposed the first “uncuttable” particle. Called atom from Greek atomos meaning indivisble.

Devised the metric system. Was married to a 13-year old Marie-Anne Pierette Paulze; she assisted him with much of his work Image taken from: www.ldeo.columbia.edu/.../v1001/geotime2.html
John Dalton In 1803, proposed an Atomic Theory which states: 1. All substances are made of atoms; 2. Atoms of the same element are exactly alike, and atoms of different elements are different 3. Atoms join with other atoms to make new substances Calculated the atomic weights of many various elements

Thomson Proved that an atom can be divided into smaller parts While experimenting with cathode-ray tubes, discovered corpuscles, which were later called electrons. Stated that the atom is neutral In 1897, proposed the Plum Pudding Model. Image taken from: www.wired.com/.../news/2008/04/dayintech_0430
Ernest Rutherford In 1909, performed the Gold Foil Experiment and suggested the following characteristics of the atom: It consists of a small core, or nucleus, that contains most of the mass of the atom This nucleus is made up of particles called protons, which have a positive charge The protons are surrounded by negatively charged electrons, but most of the atom is actually empty space Image taken from: http://www.scientific-web.com/en/Physics/Biographies/ErnestRutherford.html
NielS Bohr This model was introduced in 1913 Proposed that electrons move in set paths around the nucleus. These levels are a set distance from the nucleus Electrons can jump levels but not stay between. NOTE: It is inaccurate but still widely used as a basis for understanding.

Modern Theory Many scientists have since added to the theory and model of the atom. Schrödinger and Heisenberg discovered that the path is not exact and can only be predicted. Electron clouds are the regions inside an atom where electrons are likely to be found.
James Chadwick Realized that the atomic mass of most elements was double the number of protons → discovery of the neutron in 1932 Worked on the Manhattan Project Worked with Ernest Rutherford Won a Nobel Prize
History of the Atom - Timeline Antoine Lavoisier makes a substantial number of contributions to the field of Chemistry J.J.
