Discovered radioactivity
Discovered electrons and created the Plum Pudding Model
Discovered protons
Determined the charge of the atom and created the term "electron"
Created the periodic table and arranged it according to atomic weight
Discovered that the structure of an atom was related to electricity/had an electric component to it
First person to measure atomic weights for elements
Discovered that all matter is made up of small particles called "atoms". Also created the Dalton Model
Joseph Priestley
Was the first person to discover that atoms were made of tiny particles
Suggested that all atoms either attract or repelled from each other by "forces".
Thought all matter was created from tiny particles and that the properties of these particles also determined the properties of matter.
