History doesn't record the actual event, but it's almost certain that Albert Einstein

discovered electricity either the first time he opened his Physics book or the first time

he switched on the light in his bedroom as a child. Electricity had been thoroughly

investigated by the time Einstein was born.

Never. Einstein proposed a number of important theories, but quantum theory was not one of them.

"Quantum Theory" is actually a popular misnomer for a number of theories, the earliest of which was a quantum mechanical theory of the electromagnetic field in 1926 proposed by Max Born, Pascual Jordan, and Werner Heisenberg.

the quantum theory ,first introduiced by Max Planck,presumed that electrons revolves around the neucleus in separated energy levels, electrons jump from one level to the other by acquiring or losing a certain arbitrary quantitity of energy. the accepted theory ,at that time, regarding electromagnetism was the wave theory of light, which states that light is an electromagnetic wave, this means that it is possible to transfer any amount of energy/light so it is possible that electrons stayes in between these energy levels. here comes the conradiction between Planck's quantum theory and Maxwel's electromagnetic theory of light. However there was a strange phenomenon that started to gain wide attention; the photoelectric effect, where electrons started to exihibit a strange behavior according to Maxwel's theory.

Enstien on the other side beleived that energy and mass are of the same nature, e=mc2 says so, thus it would be most convienient to describe energy as particles not electromegnetic waves. Besides presenting energy as a stream of particles will solve Planck's problem, we said that , according to Planck, jumping from one energy level to another requires gaining or losing arbitrary amount of energy, but if energy itself costitutes of certain units i.e quanta , the problem will be solved. also the photoelectric effect could be explained easily if we adopted such view. Enstien,thus, presented his particle theory of light and insisted that light enjoys both wave and particle nature.

Note:Enstein won the nobel price for his particle theory of light not for the relativity theory.

Erwin Schrodinger familiarized himself with the quantum theory work of Plank and Einstein. His move to Germany allowed contact with Hermann Weyl who put a mathematical spin on the atomic structure allowing him to envision energy asa statistical concept.

Einstein did not think of the quantum theory, Max Planck did. Einstein has contributed to quantum physics

Who compared the atom to a bee hive?

There were many scientists that contributed their studies to come up with the theory that an atom was similar to a bee hive. These scientists include Schrodinger, Einstein, Luis De Broglie, Max Planck, Frank Hertz, Maxwell, and Fermi.


Who were the first people to come up with an atomic theory?

It depends. If you mean just any old atomic theory, credit usually goes to either Democritus or his mentor Leucippus. However, if you mean an atomic theory that wasn't totally blowing smoke out their nether regions, was backed up by actual experimental data, and at least resembled the truth in certain ways if you squinted hard enough, I'd say John Dalton is probably your guy.
