The concept that atoms play a fundamental role in chemistry is formalized by the modern atomic theory, first stated by John Dalton, an English scientist, in 1808. It consists of three parts: All matter is composed of atoms. Atoms of the same element are the same; atoms of different element...

The 20th century brought a major shift in our understanding of the atom, from the planetary model that Ernest Rutherford proposed to Niels Bohr’s application of quantum theory and waves to the behavior of electrons. With a focus on Bohr’s work, the dev

The study was conducted in six secondary schools with a study sample of 30 chemistry teachers. Data were collected using the following multiple data collection strategies: questionnaire, lesson observations and focus group interviews. The study found that teachers understood how the atomic theory links...
Dalton’s Atomic Theory was proposed by John Dalton in the year 1808. According to this theory, all substances consist of indestructible and indivisible building blocks known as atoms.

Our Atomic Theory series continues, exploring the quantum model of the atom in greater detail. This module takes a closer look at the Schrödinger equation that defines the energies and probable positions of electrons within atoms. Using the hydrogen a
