John Dalton
Atoms are composed of particles called protons, electron, and neutrons.
They both proposed the theory that all matter consists of atoms.
Yes, as far as we know he was the first to theorize about this, although he had no way of proving his theory. He came up with the word "atomos," which is Greek for indivisible. We honor him even today by using the word atom, which is derived from it.

Democritus and Dalton were the first to believe that all matter was made up of different indivisible elements called atoms. A lot of Dalton's atomic theory from the 1700s is still accepted in modern times.
Around 400 BC Democritus a Greek philosopher theorized that everything was composed of small indivisible particles he called atoms or "atomos".
Democritus, in the 5th century, proposed his version of atomism. States that all matter was composed of small indivisible particles called atoms.
The Greek philosopher who gave the atom its name was Democritus. He proposed that all matter is composed of small indivisible particles called atoms.
John Dalton
The first philosopher to develop the idea of atomism was Leucippus, who lived in the 5th century BCE. He proposed that the universe is composed of tiny, indivisible particles called atoms. His ideas were further developed by his student, Democritus.
Democritus believed that matter was made up of indivisible particles called atoms, which differed in shape and size, leading to the diversity observed in nature. Aristotle, on the other hand, proposed a continuous matter theory where substances were composed of combinations of the four elements (earth, water, air, fire) and did not believe in the existence of indivisible particles like atoms.
i think Dalton said it
Democritus was a Greek philosopher who proposed the concept of atomism, suggesting that all matter is made up of tiny, indivisible particles called atoms. Aristotle, on the other hand, believed in a continuous, infinite and indivisible substance called "hyle." Democritus's atomism focused on the idea of empty space between atoms and their constant motion, while Aristotle's view emphasized the qualities and elements that composed matter.
The Greek philosopher responsible for naming the atom was Democritus. He proposed that all matter is made up of tiny, indivisible particles called "atomos," meaning indivisible or uncuttable.
Leucippus (450?-370? BC), was a Greek philosopher. He proposed the atomic theory of matter, that all matter is constituted of identical indivisible particles called atoms. This theory was further developed by his student, Democritus.
Yes, Democritus had a student named Leucippus. Leucippus is considered to be the co-founder of the atomic theory along with Democritus, and they both proposed that matter is made up of indivisible particles called atoms.
Democritus believed that matter was made up of tiny, indivisible particles called atoms. These atoms were eternal and unchanging. Democritus also proposed that different physical properties and interactions among atoms resulted in the variety of substances we observe in the world.
