Epicurus
(BC) adopted the atomism of Leucippus and Democritus, maintaining that all objects and events—including human lives—are in reality nothing more than physical interactions among minute indestructible particles. As they fall toward the center of the earth, atoms swerve from their paths to collide with each other and form temporary compound beings. -

Wheel Of Fortune
3000 BC
the wheel was invented -

Democritus
(BC) Formulated an atomic theory for the cosmos. Same theorys as Leucippus. -

Leucippus
(BC) First greek to develop the theory of atomism, the idea that everything is composed entirely of various Imperishable, indivisable elements called atoms -
Isaac Newton
Proposed a mechanical universe with small solid masses in motion -
the greatest political event
union of the governments of england and scottland under the tittle of great britain -
Henry Cavendish
Discovery of hydrogen or what he called "inflammable air". He described the density of inflammable air, which formed water on combustion -
Lavoisier
Recognized and named oxygen (1778) and hydrogen (1783), abolished the phlogiston theory, helped construct the metric system, wrote the first extensive list of elements, and helped to reform chemical nomenclature. -
massacre
the boston massacre. adams decide to defend the british soliders involved in the atack. -
french revolution

french revolution
revolution baby, storming of the bastille -
John Dalton
Propsed on "atomic theory" with spherical solid atoms based upon measurable properties of mass. -
independence
haiti declares its independance and becomes the second independent state in the western hemisphere -
Michael Faraday
Studied the effect of electricity on solutions, coined term electrolysis, as a splitting of molecules with electricty, develpoed -
battle field
the battle of bunker hill was intense -
J. Plucker
Built one of the first gas discharge tubes (Cathode Ray Tube). -
Dmitri Mendeleev
Arranged elements into 7 groups with similar properties. He discovered that the properties of elements "were periodic functions of their atomic weights". This became know as periodic law. -
James Clerk Maxwell
Propsed electrical magnetic feilds filled the void -
Sir William Cookes
Discovered cathode rays had the following properties. Travel in straight lines from the Cathode, cause glass to fluoresce, impart a negitive charge to objects they strike. Are deflected by electric feilds and magnets to suggest a negative charge, cause pinwheels in their path to spin indicating they have mass. -
E, Goldstein
Used a CRT to study "Canal Rays" which had electrical and magnetic properties opposite of an electron. -
G.J. Stoney
Proposed that electricity was made of discrete negative particles he called electrons. -
Max Planck
Used the idea of Quata Coliscrete (units of energy) to explain hot glowing matter. -
Abegg
Doscovered that inert gases had a stable electron configuration which lead to their chemical inactivity. -
Hans Geiger
Developed an electrical device to "click" when hit with alpha particles. -
R.A. Millikan
Oil Drop experiment determined charge (e=1.603x10*-19coulomb) and the mass (m=9.11x10*-19 gram) of an electron. -
world war one start
-
NACA is started
-
Niels Bohr
Model of the atom, that explains the emission and absorption of radiation as transitions between stationary electronic states in which the electron orbits the nucleus at a definite distance. -
Schrodinger
Veiwed electrons as eontinuos clouds and introducing "wave mechanics" as a mathmatical model of the atom. -
Paul Dirac
Proposed anti-particles. Anderson discovered the Anti-Electron -
James chadwick
using alpha particles, discovered a neutral atomic particle with a mass close to a proton, Thus was discovered the Neutron. -
Lise Meitner
Conducted experiments verifying that heavy elements capture neutrons and form unstable products which undergo fission. This process ejects more neutrons continuing the fission chain reaction. -
world war two starts
-
Enrico Fermi
Conducted the first controlled cjain reaction releasing energy from the atoms nucleus. -
