Who is democratis and what was his theory of atoms?

Democratis was a greek philosopher who lived about 2500 years ago. He decied to think that everyting is made up of small things that can not be divided and he called them atomos which means uncut. He thought the atoms in liquids were round and smoothe but the atoms in solids were rough and prickley. He did nothing to prove this and later Aristotle decided falsely that there was no limit to how many times something can be divided (also with no evidence).


How did John Dalton Prove his atomic theory?

The five main points of John Dalton's atomic theory are as followed: · Elements are made of tiny particles called atoms. · All atoms of a given element are identical. · The atoms of a given element are different from those of any other element. · Atoms of one element can combine with atoms of other elements to form compounds. · A given compound always has the same relative numbers of types of atoms. · Atoms cannot be created, divided into smaller particles, nor destroyed in the chemical process. A chemical reaction simply changes the way atoms are grouped together.

What evidence was there to prove that the phlogiston pheory was correct?

1. I believe that theories can only be disproven, not proven. i.e. You create a theory and then you try to disprove it, if you can't then you can consider that theory to be true (convicing other people may be more difficult however). 2.
