Peer reviewedJones, Edwin R., Jr.; Childers, Richard L. – Physics Teacher, 1984
Discusses the development of the concept of atomicity and some of the many which can be used to establish its validity. Chemical evidence, evidence from crystals, Faraday's law of electrolysis, and Avogadro's number are among the areas which show how the concept originally developed from a purely philosophical idea.
