Question:

Who discovered electrons, energy levels and neutrons?

Author: Alana Ray



Answer:

In 1897 Scientist, J.J Thompson discovered atoms contained tiny negative particles, known as electrons and this discovery showed atoms aren't tiny spheres that can't be divided, but rather; atoms have an internal structure. While Niels Bohr allowed for the development of energy levels by theorising electrons orbit the nucleus at specific distances rather than in a general area. And the scientist James Chadwick discovered the nucleus contains neutral particles called neutrons.
