no
I think it probably looked like a sphere. not positive.
dalton created a solid sphere model. He belived that the atom was one single sphere, and that diffrent elements were made of diffrent types of atoms.
john dalton didnt find the atom democrites did... john dalton was reading and found the word atomos in a journal and decided he would change the name to atom meaning undivisible.
John Dalton discovered the atom in 1803. He didn't really discover the atom. He developed a theory of matter that involved atoms. Atoms were proved to exist later.
John Dalton
1808
Dalton theorized that an atom was a tiny solid sphere. Today we know that atoms are not solid, in fact are mostly open space.
Dalton described atoms as solid spheres. Thomson discovered the the atom also contained negatively charged particles called electrons distributed in such a way that the atom had no charge.
The scientist who first proposed the idea of the atom as a hard solid ball was John Dalton in the early 19th century. Dalton's atomic theory described atoms as tiny, indivisible particles that made up all matter.

Dalton discovered the particles that make the atom and the atom itself
J.J. Thomson's discovery of the electron showed that atoms were not indivisible as Dalton thought, but were made up of smaller subatomic particles. This led to the development of the plum pudding model of the atom, which replaced Dalton's solid indivisible atom theory.
Dalton's mental image of an atom can be best represented by a solid, indivisible sphere with no internal structure, similar to a billiard ball. This model suggested that atoms were the smallest, fundamental particles of matter.
If i remember correctly, Dalton's focuses more on the nucleus while Thompson's focuses more on electrons. But I'm not sure. well in 1803 John Dalton makes a strong case that atoms are small, solid balls and Joeseph John Thompson discovers electrons, and developed plum pudding model of an atom..... Dalton says that nothings smaller than the atom, but Thompson says that electrons are.
no, because according to him an atom is a tiny indestructable sphere with mass on it.
The Solid Sphere Model proposed by John Dalton suggests that an atom is a solid sphere with no internal structure. Dalton envisioned atoms as indivisible and indestructible particles that make up all matter. This model laid the foundation for modern atomic theory.
