Matter is composed of empty space through which atoms move. Atoms are solid,
homogeneous, indestructibel, and indivisible. Different kinds of atoms have different
sizes and shapes. The differing properties of matter are due to the size, shape, and
movement of atoms. Apparent changes in matter result from changes in the
groupings of atoms and not from changes in the atoms themselves.
Determined the charge of an electron, and calculated the mass of a single electron.
There is a tiny, dense region centrally located in an atom, which was named the
nucleus. The nucleus has a positive charge, and contains most of the mass of an
atom. Atomic model consisted of a nucleus with electrons moving rapidly through
empty space around the nucleus. Gold foil experiment.
Discovered the cathode ray when working with a vacuum tube in a darkened
laboratory.
Nucleus contains a neutral particle in addition to the positive particle. Named the
neutral particle the neutron. The mass of a neutron is almost equal to the mass of a
proton, with no electrical charge.
All matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms. All atoms of a
given element are identical, having the same size, mass, and chemical properties.
Atoms of a specific element are different from those of any other element. Atoms
cannot be created, divided into smaller particles, or destroyed. Different atoms
combine in simple whole-number ratios to form compounds. In a chemical reaction,
atoms are separated, combined, or rearranged
First model to include subatomic particles. Used Cathode Ray Tube to prove the
presence of subatomic particles. Model of the atom called the Plum Pudding Model
