Who developed the basic concept of the atom?

John Dalton was the first person to propose the idea of the atom as the smallest particle in 1803. However, equipment needed to prove the theory was not available until the late 1900s.


What scientist did not have experimental evidence to support his theory of the atom?

John Dalton did not have experimental evidence to support his theory of the atom when he proposed it in the early 19th century. His atomic theory was based on observational patterns rather than direct experimental data.


Who did not have experimental evidence to support his theory of the atom?

John Dalton did not have experimental evidence to support his theory of the atom when he first proposed it in the early 19th century. His model was based on a philosophical approach rather than direct experimental observations.


When was the Electron Cloud theory discovered?

The Electron Cloud theory was proposed in the early 20th century, around the 1920s. It was developed as an improvement to the Bohr model of the atom to better describe the behavior of electrons within an atom.

When John Dalton date of discovery?

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.


What were The targets used in the alpha particle atomic experiments in the early 1900's?

Gold foil was typically used as the target in alpha particle atomic experiments in the early 1900s. This was famously utilized by Ernest Rutherford in his gold foil experiment to study the structure of the atom.


Which came first the theory of natural selection or the theory of relativity or the heliocentric theory or the theory of the the hydrogen atom?

In the following order: Heliocentric theory of the solar system (Aristarchus of Samos, 270 BCE) Natural Selection (Darwinian evolution, 1858) Theory of the hydrogen atom (as a small negatively charged particle inside a larger positively charged particle, 1904, the plum pudding model) Theory of relativity (special relativity, 1905) Theory of relativity (general relativity's initial paper on the acceleration of objects within the framework of special relativity, 1907) Theory of the hydrogen atom (as a small particle orbiting the atomic nucleus, 1909, the Rutherford or Planetary model) Theory of the hydrogen atom (as an "electron cloud" surrounding the atomic nucleus, 1913, the quantum mechanical or Bohr model) Theory of relativity (general relativity and its ability to warp space-time, 1915) So heliocentrism was, by about two millenia, the first. Relativity and the model of the hydrogen atom are intricately intertwined, so which came first depends on what you mean specifically.
