1803: John Dalton (England) 1803: John Dalton (England) re-introduced the atomic idea re-introduced the atomic idea to modern chemistry to modern chemistry

Dalton and other chemists Dalton and other chemists did experiments involving did experiments involving gases and how they combinegases and how they combine

They noticed that elements They noticed that elements always seemed to combine always seemed to combine in the same ratios (in the same ratios (such as such as 1:1, 1:2, 2:3 etc)1:1, 1:2, 2:3 etc)
