Question
Answer
J.J Thomson (1900's)   -Cathode rays are a stream of negatives particles (electrons). -Charge to mass ratio (1.76x10^8 C/g) -Atom is ball of positive charge w/ negatively charged particles embedded (electrons)  
🗑
Robert Millikan (1900's)   -Oil drop experiment -Charge and mass of electron  
🗑
E. Goldstein (1900's)   Found 'canal rays' which are protons  
🗑
Ernest Rutherford (1900's)   -Gold foil experiment -shot alpha radiation at gold foil ~most went straight through ~some deflected (1/8000) -Atom is empty space w/small dense positive region containing atom's mass (nucleus)  
🗑
John Dalton (17-1800's)   -Father of Modern Chemistry  
🗑
Francis Bacon (1500's)   -Heat is motion by very small particles -importance of experiment -facts not derived from authority (contradict held belief)  
🗑
Galileo (1500's)   -proposed there was matter too small to see in chemical changes  
🗑
Robert Boyle (1600's)   -pressure/volume relationship of gases  
🗑
Lavoisier (1700's)   -systematic names for elements -combustion involved material's oxygen -important accurate weight measurements -Law of Conservation of Mass  
🗑
Proust (1700's)   -Law of Definite Proportions ~elements in compound always in same ratio of masses  
🗑
James Chadwick (1900's)   -existence of neutrons -difficult to find because of no charge  
🗑
