Integrated Physics and Chemistry – Unit 2: The Structure of Matter Experiment: Atomic Structure In this experiment‚ you will have a chance to test the hypothesis that Ernest Rutherford used when determining the size of the nucleus. In his "gold foil experiment‚" Rutherford shot alpha particles at gold atoms. Once he realized that the alpha particles were hitting a concentrated positive mass‚ he developed the nuclear model of the atom. Next‚ he set out to determine the relative size of the nucleus

Dalton was the first scientist to help contribute to the atomic theory. He based his thought process off of Democritus‚ an ancient Greek philosopher‚ who stated that at one point you will not be able to break down matter anymore‚ he called this basic building block an atom (meaning not divisible). Democritus believed that everything around us such as metal‚ water‚ and wood were atoms‚ but Dalton believed and proved that it could be more basic than that.
