The Greek philosopher Democritus formulated an atomic theory that everything was made up of indivisible tiny particles called atomos. He was wrong because atoms are divisible into subatomic particles.
This was an intuition of Leukippus and Democritus.
he had no evidence.
He pubish is own atomic theory in 1803 developed his atomic theory by observations gathered from many experiments .
Democritus formulated the first atomic theory. He said that atoms were tiny and constantly moving. Democritus was a Greek philosopher.
In the early 19th century, John Dalton's atomic theory gained widespread acceptance over Democritus's earlier ideas. While Democritus proposed that matter was composed of indivisible atoms, his ideas lacked experimental evidence and were largely philosophical. Dalton built on Democritus's concepts but provided a scientific framework supported by empirical data, making his theory more credible among scientists of his time. Ultimately, Dalton's work laid the foundation for modern chemistry, leading to greater acceptance of his ideas over those of Democritus.
democritus was greek philosophers.
They both thought the same theory but Dalton had evidence to prove it, unlike Democritus.
Democritus achievements are his atomic theory and his book -on the little order of the world- which describes his atomic theory.
This was an intuition of Leukippus and Democritus.
Democritus was correct in proposing that matter is composed of indivisible particles called atoms. Aristotle, on the other hand, believed that matter is infinitely divisible and that everything is made up of a combination of the four elements. Modern atomic theory supports Democritus' view that matter is made up of discrete atoms.

the atomic theory of the universe
The theory of Democritus and Leukippus was confirmed 2 400 years later; all the matter is...atoms. But note that the two Greek scientists created this theory intuitively, not after experiments.
Democritus was an ancient Greek philosopher who was a pupil of Leucippus. Democritus suggested that different types of small discrete particles formed all matter. He suggested that the properties of the tiny particles are what determined the property of the matter.
