Joseph John Thomson
Joseph ThomsonThompson discovered the electron and purposed the idea that the atom is a sphere of positive matter in which the electrons are positioned by electromagnetic forces. -
Ernest Rutherford
Ernest RutherfordErnest Rutherford
Ruherford did a serice of experiments including shooting alpha particals into gas atoms. A few atoms were diflected implying a dense, positivly charged central region containing most of the mass of the atom. -
Niels Bohr
Niels Bohr's interpretation of the atom
Bohr proposed the theory that the nucleus of the atom is positivly charged and the surrounding electrons are negativly charged. He also suggested that the outer electron levels can hold more than the inner levels. Photo Citation
