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.
