Question

true or false the atomic theroy was stated by democritus

Answer 1

True. The atomic theory was proposed by Democritus, a Greek philosopher in the 5th century BCE. He suggested that matter is composed of small, indivisible particles called "atomos." However, it's important to note that while Democritus laid the groundwork for atomic theory, the modern atomic theory was developed much later, particularly in the 19th century with contributions from scientists like John Dalton.
