Q

Democritus’s idea:

  • ________________ BC
  • He suggested that if matter was ________________ ________________ ________________ and ________________ pieces, at some point, we would get very ________________ pieces that ________________ ________________ ____________ ________________ ________________.
  • these tiny pieces are called ________________
  • they are the ________________ ________________ of ________________
  • however his idea _____________ _____________ ________________ in his time as there was ____________ ________________ to ________________ it
A

400, divided into smaller, smaller, tiny, could not be further divided, particles, building blocks, matter, was not accepted, no evidence, support

  • Brown didn’t know what caused them to move, and that his discovery would turn out to be ________________ ______ ______________ _________ ________________ __________ ________________
  • the motion of them was later called ________________ ________________

Q

Albert Einstein’s explanation

  • ________________ (time)
  • Einstein explained the Brownian motion of the pollen grains in water as follows:
  • water is ________________ ________________ ________ ____________ ________________ ________________
  • the ________________ ________________ are ________________ ________________ than the pollen grains and they are ________________ ___________ _________________ ________________
  • they ________________ the pollen grains in ________________ ________________ from time to time
  • therefore, the pollen grains are ________________ ________________ in ________________ ________________
A

made up of very small particles, water particles, much smaller, moving in different directions
