    Democritus

    Expanded the atomic theory of Leucippus. All matter is composed of small particles, which combine to make larger objects and are invisible.

    Law of Conservation of Mass

    Firsted proved correct by Antione Lavoiser.
  • John Dalton

    John Dalton

    Used a number of carefully measured and observed experiments to creat laws.

    Atomic Theory

    John Dalton created a theory that matters are made of atoms that are identical atoms that cannot be destroyed or rearranged.
  • JJ Thomson

    JJ Thomson

    Founder of electrons and used cathode ray tubes to find the charge to mass ratio of an electron to be 1.759 * 108 g. He also discovered canal rays were related with a proton and helped with the understanding of an electron.

    Plum Pudding Model

    A model of an atom proposed by John Dalton also known as the chocolate chip model.
  • Ernest Rutherford

    Ernest Rutherford

    Discovered that the center of the atom is positively charged, atoms also contain empty spaces, and figured electrons grouped around the nucleous. He also identified alpha, beta, and gamma radiation.
