John dalton atom model

Atomic theory – that is, the belief that all matter is composed of tiny, indivisible elements – has very deep roots. Initially, the theory appeared in thousands of years ago in Greek and Indian texts as a philosophical idea. However, it was not embraced scientifically until the 19th century, when an evidence-based approach began to … Continue reading "What Is John Dalton’s Atomic Model?"

Dalton's Billiard Ball Atomic Model

#OnThisDay Meet the scientist John Dalton. He was born on this day. He was the first to put forward experimental evidence of elements and matter being composed of extremely small particles, which he called atoms. He proposed that all atoms of an element were identical, but that different elements had atoms of differing size, mass and chemical properties.

In the mid nineteenth Century, John Dalton proposed his nuclear hypothesis: matter arrived in an assortment of components, and every one of the molecules of a given component were indistinguishable in mass and their different properties.

John Dalton- In 1803-1807, Dalton proposed a new theory of the nature of atoms, which became known as Dalton's Atomic Theory. It stated that elements are made of atoms and cannot be created or destroyed. It was the first comprehensive description of the behaviour of all matter. His model of the atom was of a hard, immutable sphere referred to as the Billiard Ball Model.

Atomic models from John Dalton, Joseph John Thomson, Niels Bohr, Ernest Rutherford, Arnold Sommerfeld and Ervin Schrödinger.

Sometimes people ask me what do I do to entice reluctant adopters to try something with technology in their classrooms. My answer is based on my own experience: start by remaking the worst lesson. Some technology integration is likely to make the worst lesson less awful. A little success will breed enthusiasm and a willingness to try again. For a long time, my own worst lesson was a lesson about the atomic models. I had a video I showed with excellent content, but the trouble with the video…
