More than 2000 years ago, Greek philosophers proposed the existence
1. ___________________
of very small, indivisible particles, each of which was called a(n)
2. ___________________
__(1)__. The theory that such particles existed was supported, much
later, by Lavoisier, who proposed, in his law of __(2)__, that matter
cannot be created or destroyed. Then Proust proposed, in his law of
3. ___________________
4. ___________________
__(3)__, that the ratio of the masses of elements in any given
5. ___________________
compound is always the same. An atomic theory based on these laws
6. ___________________
was developed by __(4)__.
7. ___________________
It was later proposed that the atom was not indivisible, but is made up
of smaller particles, each of which is called a(n) __(5)__. These
particles include the negatively-charged __(6)__, discovered by
8. ___________________
9. ___________________
10. ___________________
__(7)__; the positively-charged __(8)__, discovered by __(9)__; and the 11. ___________________
uncharged __(10)__, discovered by __(11)__. The latter two particles
are present in the __(12)__, or center, of the atom, which was
discovered by __(13)__ in his gold foil experiment.

The number of positively-charged particles in an atom is called its
15. ___________________
__(14)__. The sum of the positively-charged particles and the
16. ___________________
uncharged particles is called the __(15)__ of the atom. Atoms that
have the same number of positively-charged particles but different
numbers of uncharged particles are called __(16)__.
