History of the Atom! Roman Dymkevitch Block 2 Honors
Democritus460 B.C. • Came up with the idea that atoms were indestructible and indivisible. • Thought atoms were a ball and the smallest piece of matter.
Dalton1803 • Through experiments, Dalton realized that each element has one specific atom. • Atoms of different elements are different from each other.
Mendeleev1869 • He invented the first periodic table. • He predicted the properties of undiscovered elements.
Eugene Goldstein1885 • Discovered that atoms have positively charged particles. • He used the cathode-ray tube experiment to discover this.
Henry Becquerel1896 • Henry discovered that magnetic fields can deflect x-rays. • He also discovered radioactivity and was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1903.
J.J. Thomson1897 • First to use cathode ray experiment. • Discovered atoms have negatively charged particle. • Came up with the following atom model.
Ernest Rutherford1907 • First to use gold-foil experiment. • Discovered that atoms are mostly empty space and that they have a nucleus. • Proved J.J. Thomson’s atom model is incorrect.
Millikan1910 • Determined through experiment that electrons carry the negative charge in an atom. • Used J.J. Thomson’s ratio the find the mass of electrons.
Niels Bohr 1913 • Bohr invented another model of the atom. • It involves a positive nucleus with negative orbiting electrons in different energy levels.
Frederick Soddy1913 • Studied radioactive substances with Rutherford. • Discovered that radioactive elements emitting alpha and beta particles change into elements with different chemical properties.
Heisenberg1925 • He developed quantum mechanics. • He also stated the uncertainty principle.
Chadwick1932 • James Chadwick discovered the subatomic particle: neutrons. • Neutrons have a neutral charge.
