ARISTOTLE

INFORMATION

• Aristotle was. Born in 384 B.C
• And died in 322 B.C
• Was born In Greece

IMPORTANT CONTIBUTATIONS

• Aristotle didn't believe in the atomic theory so he made up his own opinions (beliefs) that everything
• Was made from 4 elements. Which he thought were fire, water, earth, and air.
• After proving this theory incorrect (Many years after his death) We were able to go more in
• depth with modern technology and were are able to form what we now know are atoms.
• And not fire, water, earth, and air.

ARRIVING AT HIS CONCLUSION

• Because he did not have access to modern
• Technology, he had to just use what he thought.
• So why he got the idea of fire, water, air, and earth
• Is understandable.

ACCEPTED OR DENIED?

• His theory was obviously denied
• ... But the amount of time it took is
• Impressive. It took us almost 2000
• Years to prove it wrong and make
• Our modern beliefs in atoms.
