His theory stated that atoms were invisible and indestructible. Since Democritus did not really have that much technological support at the time‚ he could not elaborate on his suggestion. That’s where John Dalton came in…..2000 years later. Dalton used experimental methods to changed Democritus’s idea into a scientific theory. Dalton then began analyzing the ratios in which elements merge in chemical reactions. After doing several experiment‚ Dalton’s atomic theory was created. The

He was not the first to propose that the atom was the smallest particle of matter‚ but he was the first to use experimental evidence to support his theory. 7. A scientist is a creative and critical thinker Example: Albert Einstein was able to derive his theory of relativity because he went beyond what was given and known at that time. He saw links and connections

the atom‚ it has involved and formed many theories. There were many physicians who were significant people that contributed to the formation of the atom today. One of these physicians is named John Dalton. He should be considered as the most influential contributor to the atomic theory‚ due to the fact that he was one who formulated various theories that assist in defining the atom. There could have been numerous ways for Dalton to disarray the theories‚ and yet he did not.

Meitner‚ Ernst Marsden‚ and Hans Geiger. All of these physicists impacted the development of the atomic theory one way or another. Albert Einstein was a German physicist who moved to America to share his knowledge about the atomic theory. In 1905‚ he wrote a famous paper that concerned tiny particles and how they moved in a liquid or gas. Einstein took Brownian motion(Browns law) and confirmed the atomic theory of matter by the use of Brownian motion. This was some of the first proof that atoms actually
