450 BC - Democritus
Deep Thinker - No evidence
was provided
Greek: atomus – means indivisible
Coined the term “atom”
The Dark Ages
Religious and scientific persecution
BUT only in EUROPE
Meanwhile…
Trade routes between the
Middle East and Asia kept
Science going.
Far Eastern alchemists designed
modern glassware and apparatus
1808 - Dalton
► First
model based on experiments.
1. All matter is made up of tiny particles called atoms.
They cannot be created, destroyed or divided into
smaller particles.
2. The atoms of one element cannot be converted into the
atoms of any other element.
3. All the atoms of one element have the same properties,
such as mass and size.
4. Atoms of different elements combine in specific
proportions to form compounds.
1903 – J.J. Thomson
► Introduction
of atomic charge.
Sphere of positive mass with negative
charges interspersed.
Raisin Bun model
1911 – Ernest Rutherford
► Gold
Foil Experiment
Anticipated Results
Actual Results
1911 - Rutherford
► 1.
most of the atom is empty space
► 2. there must be a central component of
the atom containing all of the positive
charge.
He called this the Nucleus
1913 – Neils Bohr
► Explained
the path of electrons (orbits)
around the positive nucleus
► These orbits are specific distances from the
nucleus
► Electron energy level model.
Modern Atomic Theory
All matter is made up of atoms. Each atom
consists of subatomic particles: electrons,
protons & neutrons (an atom is divisible, it is the
smallest part of an element)
2. Atoms of on element cannot be converted into
atoms of another element by a chemical reaction
(nuclear reactions, alter the composition of the
nucleus, so convert atoms of one element into
another)
3. All atoms have the same properties such as size
and mass. (exception is isotopes)
4. Atoms of different elements combine in fixed
proportions to form compounds. (no changes

Standard Atomic Notation
Mass Number (A) – Each element is assigned a mass number
which corresponds to the number of protons plus neutrons
found in the nucleus of the atom of that element.
A = #p+ + #n
Atomic Number (Z) – Each element is assigned an atomic
number which corresponds to the number of protons found in
the nucleus of the atom of that element.
