⚛️ Mindmap: Atomic Model

Tracing the Smallest – from Dalton to Bohr

💡 Did you know that…

… the concept of the atom has completely changed several times over the centuries – from the simple billiard ball model to the modern orbital model of quantum physics?

This mindmap shows you step by step how our understanding of matter has evolved – from the first ideas of ancient philosophers to the models that form the basis of chemistry and physics today.
