Atomic Theory
By: Katelin Troy
Some History:
Henry Baquel
Found that Uranium ore emitted rays.
Marie and Pierre Curie
Worked with radioactivity and discovered three subatomic particles:
~ Alpha ()~ Beta ()~ Gamma (γ)
These explain electrical charges in an atom.
J.J. Thomson
~ Studied charges in a Cathode Ray Tube.
~ Discovered through his experiment that atoms have negatively charged particles.
Robert Millikan
~ Worked with charged oil drops in a chamber.
~Discovered the charge and mass of electrons and protons:
Electron- Charge= -1- Mass= 9.1094 * 10-28 g
Proton- Charge = +1- Mass = 1.6726 * 10^-24 g
Earnest Rutherford
Worked with gold foil experiment- Charged particles were aimed at
Au atoms.
Conclusions:- An atom has a small positive
middle, aka the nucleus.
- Most of the volume of the nucleus is taken up by electrons.

Atomic Structure
~ Proton (p+)
~ Electron (e-)
~ Neutron (n)
Nucleus:
~ p+ and n
~ most of atomic mass
~ small
~ positive charge
Outside Nucleus:
~ contains e-
~ small light particles
~ occupy most of volume
~ negative charge
Atoms are neutral~ Number of e- = number of p+
There are 3 electrons in this atom, how many protons are there?
