=Jake Gieselman= Democritus-he helped to find the atomic theory, he proved aristotle wrong. Democritus proved that there is always something and never nothing. He proved aristotle wrong by showing there is always something in space. Democritus argued that atoms were limited to few properties, particularly size, shape, and weight, all other properties that we attribute to matter, such as color and taste, are but the result of complex interactions between the atoms in our bodies and the atoms of the matter that we are examining. He believed that the real properties of atoms determine the perceived properties of matter.
