Early Models of the Atom
Democritus Greek philosopher (460 BC –370 BC) Among first to suggest existence of atoms. Reasoned atoms were indivisible & indestructible Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved.

Early Models of the Atom
Dalton English chemist & school teacher 1766 – 1864 Used experimental methods to transform Democritus’ ideas into scientific theory Studied ratios of how elements combine in chemical reactions Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved.

Early Models of the Atom
Dalton’s Atomic Theory All elements are composed of tiny indivisible particles called atoms. Atoms of element A Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved.

Early Models of the Atom
Dalton’s Atomic Theory Atoms of different elements can chemically combine in simple whole-number ratios to form compounds.(Law of Definite proportions) Mixture of atoms of elements A and B Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved.

Early Models of the Atom
Dalton’s Atomic Theory In chemical reactions atoms are separated, combined, or rearranged. (but cannot be destroyed) Compound made by chemically combining atoms of elements A and B Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved.

The Rutherford Atomic Model Protons and neutrons are in the nucleus
The Atomic Nucleus The Rutherford Atomic Model Protons and neutrons are in the nucleus Electrons distributed around nucleus and occupy almost all of the volume of the atom Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved.
15
Bohr model 1915 Protons and Neutrons are in the nucleus
Electrons are outside the nucleus in orbitals Electrons can move from one orbital to another, and release energy as electromagnetic radiation. Copyright © Pearson Education, Inc., or its affiliates. All Rights Reserved.
