Week 2 Discussion: Development of Atomic Theory

Hey Scholars!!!,



Thanks to all who posted their comments last week. Those were some interesting articles. This week we are studying Atomic Theory from past to present. My challenge to you this week is to find an "interesting factoid" on one of the scientists involved with the formation of Atomic Theory. These "interesting factoids" can be about the scientists personal life, etc. The person with the most interesting fact will receive a prize on Monday Sept. 8th, 2008.



Get your FACTOID on....
