who first observed the atom and how?
The first person to propose that matter was made up of atoms and then write it down, was a greek philosopher named Democritus. He expanded the idea to state that matter was composed of small particles called " atoms"   that could be divided no further.These atoms were all composed of the same primary matter with the only differences between differences in the properties of the matter around us.
