HISTORY OF THE ATOM

460 BC

Democritus develops the idea of atoms

He pounded up materials in his pestle and mortar until he had reduced them to smaller and smaller particles which he called

ATOMAATOMA

(greek for indivisible)

First atomic models – roughly First atomic models – roughly based on earth, air, water, and based on earth, air, water, and

HISTORY OF THE ATOM

1808

John Dalton

Suggested that all matter was made up of tiny spheres that were able to bounce around with perfect elasticity and called them

ATOMATOMSS

The new model of an atom- a The new model of an atom- a tiny solid spheretiny solid sphere

HISTORY OF THE ATOMHISTORY OF THE ATOM

1898

Joseph John Thompson

found that atoms could sometimes eject a far smaller negative particle which he called an

ELECTRONELECTRON

Thompson develops the idea that an atom was made up of electrons scattered unevenly within an elastic sphere surrounded by a soup of positive charge to balance the electron's charge

MODEL

The new model of an atom- The new model of an atom- atoms contain smaller, atoms contain smaller,

negatively charged particles negatively charged particles

1910 Ernest Rutherford

• English scientist who tested JJ Thompson’s model • Rutherford’s new evidence allowed him to propose a more detailed model with a central nucleus. • He suggested that the positive charge was all in a central nucleus. This held the electrons in place by electrical attraction

Rutherford’s experimentRutherford’s experiment

The results?

His hypothesis:

The new atomic model- a The new atomic model- a dense, positively charged dense, positively charged

nucleus in the center nucleus in the center surrounded by electronssurrounded by electrons

1913

Niels Bohr

studied under Rutherford in Manchester, England

Bohr refined Rutherford's idea by adding that the electrons were in orbits. Rather like planets orbiting the sun. With each orbit only able to contain a set number of electrons.
