| model | scientist | date | contribution to the atomic model |
|---|---|---|---|
| image of two spheres | john dalton | 1808 | - english teacher who created the first true __ .<br>- performed experiments that found that substances always combined in strict .<br>- stated that atoms are spheres, atoms of one element are , atoms of different elements are , and __ are combinations of atoms. |
| image of sphere with dots | j.j. thomson | 1897 | - english physicist who created the __ model.<br>- performed experiments that found cathode rays were made of negatively-charged particles called that were smaller than the atom; the first subatomic particle discovered.<br>- stated that atoms were composed of negatively-charged electrons scattered through a ball made of __ charge. |
| image of planetary model | ernest rutherford | 1911 | - english physicist who created the __ model.<br>- performed experiments that shot positively-charged alpha particles at foil; most went through but some scattered.<br>- stated that atoms were mostly with a dense, positively-charged with negatively-charged electrons surrounding it. discovered __ in 1919. |
| image of bohr model | neils bohr | 1913 | - danish physicist who created the __ model.<br>- used rutherford’s data to show that electrons are arranged in circular , similar to planets in a solar system.<br>- stated that electrons move around the nucleus in orbits based on their . electrons closer to the nucleus have energy, electrons further away have __. |
| image of electron cloud | erwin schrodinger | 1926 | - austrian physicist who created the __ model.<br>- used complex math to show that electrons don’t move in set orbits, but move as .<br>- stated that atoms had a nucleus surrounded by an . the probability of finding an electron is where the cloud is densest and __ where it is less dense. |
| image of nucleus with neutron | james chadwick | 1932 | - english physicist who discovered the __.<br>- performed experiments that shot positively-charged alpha particles at and found a new kind of radiation.<br>- proposed that the radiation was made of subatomic particles called neutrons equal in mass to that had a charge. neutrons are found in the __. |
Response
John Dalton (1808)
- Contribution blanks:
- First true atomic theory
- Substances combined in strict numerical ratios (or "fixed proportions")
- Atoms are solid spheres, atoms of one element are identical, atoms of different elements are different, and compounds are combinations of atoms.
J.J. Thomson (1897)
- Contribution blanks:
- Created the plum pudding model
- Cathode rays made of negatively - charged particles called electrons
- Atoms composed of electrons scattered through a ball made of positive charge.
Ernest Rutherford (1911)
- Contribution blanks:
- Created the nuclear model
- Shot alpha particles at gold foil
- Atoms mostly empty space with a dense, positively - charged nucleus; discovered protons in 1919.
Niels Bohr (1913)
- Contribution blanks:
- Created the planetary (or "Bohr") model
- Electrons arranged in circular orbits
- Electrons move based on their energy; electrons closer to nucleus have less energy, further away have more energy.
Erwin Schrödinger (1926)
- Contribution blanks:
- Created the quantum mechanical (or "electron cloud") model
- Electrons move as waves
- Atoms have a nucleus surrounded by an electron cloud; probability of finding electron is high where cloud is densest, low where less dense.
James Chadwick (1932)
- Contribution blanks:
- Discovered the neutron
- Shot alpha particles at beryllium
- Neutrons equal in mass to protons with a neutral charge; found in the nucleus.
