Also to know is, what is Democritus atomic theory?
Democritus believed that atoms were uniform, solid, hard, incompressible, and indestructible and that they moved in infinite numbers through empty space until stopped. Differences in atomic shape and size determined the various properties of matter. … The atoms of the soul were considered to be particularly fine.
Regarding this, who discovered atoms? The idea that everything is made of atoms was pioneered by John Dalton (1766-1844) in a book he published in 1808. He is sometimes called the “father” of atomic theory, but judging from this photo on the right “grandfather” might be a better term.
Consequently, who discovered electron Thomson or Faraday?
When passed between the poles of a magnet, these cathode rays behave the same way as the β particles described earlier. The fact that they were very small electrically charged particles led the English physicist J. J. Thomson (1856 to 1940) to identify them with the electrons of Faraday’s experiments.
