Scientific Contributions Cartoon Hmmm I wonder if I could keep cutting this in half forever?... Probably not, before long it would be too small to see. It would become invisible. Ah Ha! Invisible, indivisible The Atom Scientists and their contributions: Date: Scientist: 2 important contributions to the Atomic Theory: Date: Scientist: An Atom must be much like a miniature solar system with electons in orbit about the nucleus, much like our planets orbit our sun. 3 important contributions to the Atomic Theory: Date: Scientist: 2 important contributions to the Atomic Theory: To my great astonishment I have discovered that the atom is mostly empty space. It seems to be occupied by a small dense positive force surrounded by negatively charged particles. And so all elements are made of atoms. 1. Atoms are invisible, indivisible particles 2. Atoms of the same element are identical 3. Atoms of different elements are dissimilar 4. When two or more elements chemically combine they form a compound Date: Scientist: 4 important contributions to the Atomic Theory: These are the critical parts of MY Atomic Theory! Date: Scientist: My research has led me to believe that there are both positive and negative forces at work within the atom. 2 important contributions to the Atomic Theory: 4
