    William Crookes
    J.J Thompson
    Robert Milikan
    Ernest Ruthford
    and James Chadwick

    Do I have to learn them all in depth? I don't mind doing so but I'm just wondering. Thanks

    Do exam questions. You will see from then what you really need to know. Imo, no, not much detail. Just know how how each contributed.

    Thomson, know the plumb pudding model.
    Milikin, know what he used the oil drop experiment to discover.
    Chadwick, just know what he discovered.

    RUTHEFORD: is an important one though. Know the gold foil experiment (3 observationsand 3 conclusions are NB)

    Again, by doing exam questions you will see exactly what you need to know (and tbh, for this chapter, not much!!)

    Also, dates of when all this went on, need not be known!
