The Greek Model
• Democritus - A Greek Philosopher, 400 BC.
• Concluded that matter could not be divided into smaller and smaller pieces forever.
• Eventually, the smallest piece of matter would be found.
• He used the word "Atomos“ meaning indivisible.
The Dalton Model: Billiard Ball Model• John Dalton - The English chemist that proposed
first Atomic Theory in 1803.
• All elements are composed of indivisible particles. • Atoms of the same element are exactly alike. • Atoms of different elements are different. • Compounds are formed by joining atoms of two or
more elements
The Thomson Model: Chocolate Chip Cookie Model
Plum Pudding Model
J. J. Thomson 1856 – 1940 – (English scientist)
• discovered negative particle (an Electron) in 1887by using a cathode ray tube
• initially called electrons CORPUSLES
Robert A. Millikan (1868 – 1953)1900 – mass of Electron
approximately 1/2000 the mass of a Hydrogen atom
1916 -determined the charge carried by an electron
Millikan OIL DROP EXPERIMENT
Eugene Goldstein (1850 -1930)
• 1866 Eugene Goldstein found Positive particle – Protons
• He named them CANAL RAYS
– Discovered the neutron in
1932
– Has no charge
– Neutron’s mass is close to proton’s mass

Sir James Chadwick 1891 - 1974
Ernest Rutherford - British Physicist Gold Foil Experiment
In 1908, proved the atom had a small,
dense, positively charged Nucleus.
He said an atom is mostly empty space and
negative electrons are scattered around the outside edge.
Niels Bohr (Danish scientist)The Planetary Model - 1913
Bohr proposed:
• Electrons move in definite orbits around the nucleus, like planets moving around the sun.
• That each electron moves in a specific energy level.
Quantum Mechanical Model Erwin Schrodinger (1887-1961)
-Electrons have NO definite path in an atom.
-Only a probable location is known based on how much energy it has.
-Atomic orbitals (s,p,d,f) are NOT fixed paths as Bohr suggested
