  2. History of atomic theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_atomic_theory

    This led to a series of atomic models with some quantum aspects, such as that of Arthur Erich Haas in 1910 [37]: 197 and the 1912 John William Nicholson atomic model with quantized angular momentum as h/2 π. [58] [59] The dynamical structure of these models was still classical, but in 1913, Bohr abandon the classical approach.

    John Dalton FRS (/ ˈ d ɔː l t ən /; 5 or 6 September 1766 – 27 July 1844) was an English chemist, physicist and meteorologist. [1] He introduced the atomic theory into chemistry.

    John Dalton's union of atoms combined in ratios (1808) Similar to these views, in 1803 John Dalton took the atomic weight of hydrogen, the lightest element, as unity, and determined, for example, that the ratio for nitrous anhydride was 2 to 3 which gives the formula N 2 O 3. Dalton incorrectly imagined that atoms "hooked" together to form ...

    Dalton's 1806 list of known elements by atomic weight. In 1808–10, British natural philosopher John Dalton published a method by which to arrive at provisional atomic weights for the elements known in his day, from stoichiometric measurements and reasonable inferences. Dalton's atomic theory was adopted by many chemists during the 1810s and ...

    John Dalton's model of the atom, which held that atoms are indivisible and indestructible (superseded by nuclear physics) and that all atoms of a given element are identical in mass (superseded by discovery of atomic isotopes). [13] Plum pudding model of the atom—assuming the protons and electrons were mixed together in a single mass

    John William Nicholson is noted as the first to create an atomic model that quantized angular momentum as h/2π. [11] [12] Niels Bohr quoted him in his 1913 paper of the Bohr model of the atom. [13] 1912 – Victor Hess discovers the existence of cosmic radiation.
