-
Atoms are in uniform, solid, hard, incompressible, indestructible, and they moved in infinite numbers through empty stance until stopped
-
All matter is comprised of indivisible and indestructible atoms with distinct masses and properties. He also inferred that gases must consist of tiny moving particles.
-
Water is not an element, but is a compound of oxygen and inflammable air
-
Originated the quantum theory, deduced the relationship between the nervy and frequency of radiation.
-
Radioactivity doesn’t depend on how atoms are arranged, but instead it originates within the atoms themselves
-
Proved all electrons have a constant quantity, demonstrating the atomic structure of electricity. Discovered an accurate determination of the charge carried by an electron.
-
Atoms contain a positively charged nucleus much smaller than the actual atom
-
made a wave equation that accurately calculated the energy levels of electrons in atoms. He also used math to find out where electrons were and how frequently they appeared.
-
Proved the existence of neutrons. Also Interpreted radiation as being made of particles of mass equal to that of the proton but without electrical charge.
-
Introduced the idea of particles such as electrons, being described as waves.
-
All matter contains particles of the same kind
-
Formulated a type of quantum mechanics based on matrices
-
Mathematically proved the existence of atoms, helping revolutionize all sciences through statistics and probability.
-
Proposed that some physical quantities only take discrete values, but only in perscribed orbits. He also concluded that the nucleus of an atom is similar to a drop of water.
