Question
Answer
Charge of electron   e-  
Charge of proton   p+  
Charge of neutron   n0  
What is atomic number?   number of protons or electrons in an atom  
What is mass number?   number of protons + number of neutrons in an atom  
Lucretius   smaller particles, and a poet  
Democritus   world is empty space and atoms, no evidence, philosopher  
Aristotle   matter is continuous, Democritus was full of feces  
Newton and Boyle   atomic nature of elements, no proof  
Dalton   1800's, 1st atomic theory based on proof  
Dalton's Theory   All matter is composed of atoms, Atoms of the same element are identical, Atoms of different elements are not identical, Atoms unite in ratios to form compounds, and Atom is the smallest particle  
Lavoisier   Law of Conservation of Mass  
Proust   Law of Definite Proportions-elements can always combine in the same ratio  
JJ Thomson   Discovered the electron, first to use cathode ray tube  
Goldstein   Used modified cathode ray tube  
Millikan   Discovered mass and charge of ELECTRONS, oil drop experiment  
Rutherford   Discover NUCLEUS, gold foil experiment, mostly empty space, small-tense-positively charged  
Sir James Chadwick   Discovered NEUTRON, has NO CHARGE,  
Canal rays later named...   protons  
Mass of p+   mass of n0, 1 amu  
Mass of n0   mass of p+, 1 amu  
Mass of e-   1/1840 amu  
Isotopes   elements that have the same number of protons and a different number of neutrons  
Hydrogen isotopes   Protium, Deuterium, Tritium
