Study Notes
Atomic Theories
- Atoms were postulated to be composed of a positively charged sphere with negatively charged particles embedded in it, according to Thomson's 'plum pudding' theory.
Protons and Electrons
- Positively charged particles called protons were discovered by Rutherford.
- Negatively charged particles known as electrons were found by J.J. Thomson.
Dalton's Atomic Theory
- Atoms of the same element are identical in mass, shape, and size, according to Dalton's atomic theory.
- Dalton proposed that atoms were indivisible, hard, dense spheres.
Atomic Structure
- Based on Thomson's observations, he postulated that atoms have a positively charged sphere with negatively charged particles (electrons) embedded in it.
Experiments and Discoveries
- Scientists discovered that electrons and protons are constituents of atoms, based on their experiments.
