17
Q

A student of Leucippus, also thought the same way.

He posited that all matter was composed of small indestructible particles, which he called atoms, from the Greek word atomos, which means “indivisible”.

A

Democritus (460 BCE -370 BCE)

18
Q

This idea meant that if you were to cut a piece of object (matter), there would be a point wherein the object could no longer be further split into pieces.

Thus, matter can be subdivided only to a certain point, at which only atoms remain.

(the person and the belief)

A

Democritus- The idea of ATOM

19
Q

Density inside a star is great enough to sustain fusion for the extended time periods required to synthesize heavy elements.

A

Stellar nucleosynthesis

20
Q

Nuclear synthetic pathways that can produce heavier elements

A

Carbon-nitrogen-oxygen cycle
Proton-proton fusion
Triple alpha process

21
Q

Elements heavier than iron cannot be formed through fusion as ____________________________________________ are needed for the reaction to occur

A

tremendous amounts of energy

22
Q

He strongly opposed Leucippus and Democritus’s theory that atoms were indivisible.

A

aristotle (384 BCE-322 BCE)

23
Q

He revived the idea of atomic theory 2000 years after Democritus first proposed about it.

A

John Dalton (1766-1844)

24
Q

Formation of heavier elements

A

Stellar nucleosynthesis

25
The CRT was further improved by _______________________ using his Braun tube, which was the prototype of early television tubes and computer monitors.
Karl Ferdinand Braun (1850-1918)
26
He believed that all things can be divided indefinitely; therefore, he said there was no smallest part of matter.
aristotle (384 BCE-322 BCE)
27
Those who supported Leucippus and Democritus’s idea of the atom were called ______
ATOMISTS.
28
In the early 17th century, he said that each Democritean atom is a perfect Aristotelian mix in that the elements are like shells that hide the secret “first principles” or seeds. (i.e., atoms)
Andreas Libavius (1555-1616)
29
____________ produced during the BBN
Isotopes
30
they tried to explain atomic theory based on experiments unlike the philosopher’s logical way of explaining.
Alchemists
31
In 1619, he experimented on how precious metals could be dissolved in acid and then precipitated using alkali. This experiment paved the way for the mechanical philosophy of Robert Boyle (1627-1691) and Rene Descartes (1596-1650).
Daniel Sennert (1572-1637)
32
He also claimed that all matter is consisted of four elements- earth, fire, water and air.
aristotle
33
the major postulates of Dalton’s atomic theory:
1Matter is composed of small indivisible particles called atom. 2Atoms of the same element are identical. 3Compounds contains atoms of more than one element. 4In a compound, atoms of different elements always combine in the same way.
34
Elements form during nuclear fusion
Hydrogen (H) Helium (He) Lithium (Li) Beryllium (Be)
35
Law of Definite Proportions
Elements combine in a fixed proportion to form a compound.
36
In Neutron capture reaction, Heavy elements are formed in a ________
supernova
37
The _________________________ is a glass tube with two electrodes: the positive electrode called ANODE and the negative electrode called _________
Cathode Ray Tube | cathode
38
______ is a medieval practice which aims to transform a metal into gold.
Alchemy
39
A form an element that has the same atomic number of the original element but with a different atomic mass or mass number
Isotopes
40
Because he was more popular and influential during that time, many people accepted his idea.
aristotle
41
He first identified the cathode rays which were confirmed by ______________ using his Crookes tube. (2 person)
Julius Plucker (1801-1868) Sir William Crookes (1832-1919)
