. Atoms combine to form compounds
. In compounds, atoms are joined in definite whole- number ratios

Amedeo Avogadro
. STP= Standard Temp present
. 1 mole= 6.02x10x23 atoms
J.J. Thomson
. Discovered atoms had electrons
. ‘‘Atom is like plum pudding’’
Thomson’s model
. Neg charged electrons are surrounding the nucleus which gives the atom a neutral charge
Ernest Rutherford
. responsible for discovering the nucleus using a gold-foil experiment
Rutherford’s Experiment
. Positive charged nucleus is in the middle of the atom
Niels Bohr
. Discovered that electrons were present in the atom and circled the nucleus
Bohr’s model
. Electrons move around the nucleus in distinct orbitals
. Similar to the way our solar system is set up
