DemocritusDemocritus

This is the Greek This is the Greek philosopher Democritus philosopher Democritus who began the search for who began the search for a description of matter a description of matter more than more than 24002400 years ago. years ago. He asked: Could matter He asked: Could matter

be divided into smaller be divided into smaller and smaller pieces and smaller pieces forever, or was there a forever, or was there a limitlimit to the number of to the number of times a piece of matter times a piece of matter could be could be divideddivided? ?

This piece would be This piece would be indivisible.indivisible.

He named the smallest He named the smallest piece of matter “atomos,” piece of matter “atomos,” meaning “not to be cut.”meaning “not to be cut.”

Aristotle and Plato favored the earth, fire, air and water approach to the nature of matter. Their ideas held sway because of their eminence as philosophers. The atomos idea was buried for approximately 2000 years.

Dalton’s ModelDalton’s Model

In the early 1800s, In the early 1800s, the English the English Chemist John Chemist John Dalton Dalton performed a performed a number of number of experiments that experiments that eventually led to eventually led to the acceptance of the acceptance of the idea of atoms.the idea of atoms.

Thomson’s Plum Pudding Thomson’s Plum Pudding ModelModel

In In 18971897, the , the English scientist English scientist J.J. Thomson J.J. Thomson provided the first provided the first hint that an atom hint that an atom is made of even is made of even smallersmaller particles. particles.

As the current As the current passed through passed through the gas, it gave off the gas, it gave off rays of rays of negatively negatively charged particles.charged particles.

Where did they come from?

Page 17: Atomos: Not to Be Cut

Thomson concluded that the negative charges came from within the atom.

A particle smaller than an atom had to exist.

The atom was divisible!

Thomson called the negatively charged “corpuscles,” today known as electrons.

Since the gas was known to be neutral, having no charge, he reasoned that there must be positively charged particles in the atom.

But he could never find them.
