近代化學的奠基者之一道爾頓.
At the beginning of the 19th century, John Dalton theorised that an atom was an indivisible particle of an element.
在第19世紀開始，約翰·道爾頓建立了原子是元素不可分的微粒的理論。
The theory that answered these questions came from a seemingly unlikely individual, an awkward, colorless, poorly educated teacher named John Dalton.
一個能廻答這些問題的理論由一位看上去個性竝不突出、笨拙而無光彩，沒有受過高等教育的教師J·道爾頓提出來了。
John Dalton first used symbols to designate single atoms of elements, not indefinite amounts, and Jons Jacob Berzelius gave many of the current names.
道耳吞曾在鍊金術士用圖表示元素的基礎上,進一步用符號表示單個的原子(不表示數量)。貝採利烏斯根據元素的拉丁文名稱命名了許多元素。
The scientific atomism which was founded by the famous modern chemist John Dalton in 1813 had great significance not only in chemistry but also in the whole natural science.
有些化學史書認爲道爾頓在其原子論中提出的“最簡槼則”是人爲的、武斷的、甚至是不科學的。
