It has always been difficult to convince people of the existence of things that are too small to see. We will spend some time considering the evidence (observations) that convinced scientists of the existence of atoms.

It discusses fundamental laws of chemistry, like conservation of mass, and pivotal experiments such as Rutherford's gold foil and J.J. Thomson's cathode ray tube that reveal atomic structure.
