PPT-Early atomic theory Chapter 3

The atom from philosophy to scientific theory 400 BC Democritus came up with the idea of the Natures basic particle His ideas were not useful in explaining chemical behavior because . At the start of WWII in 1939 the atomic bomb had not yet been invented. However, scientists discovered about that time that a powerful explosion might be possible by splitting an atom. This type of bomb could destroy large cities in a single blast and would change warfare forever!. Lab no. 6. In . analytical chemistry. , . Atomic absorption spectroscopy.

Democritus’s ideas about atoms.. Section 4.1 Defining the Atom. OBJECTIVES:. Explain. Chapter 3. Types of Models – Why do we use models?. Physical Model vs. Conceptual Model. Physical model. is a representation of a very large or small object shown at a convenient scale. . Science is based off of observations.. A Scientific Law is a summary of what is seen in observations. . A Scientific Theory is an explanation of why these observations are occurring.. Both laws and theories are tested by using them to predict what would happen in certain situations.. What is Today’s Model?. Dense, Positively Charged Nucleus. Mostly. Empty. Space.
