Whose Argument Prevails?Whose Argument Prevails?

Aristotle’s viewpoint enjoyed the support of Aristotle’s viewpoint enjoyed the support of most of the world because he was more most of the world because he was more well-known and because Democritus had well-known and because Democritus had no evidence to back up his claim since no evidence to back up his claim since these “atoms” would be too small to see.these “atoms” would be too small to see.

Bohr’s InterpretationBohr’s Interpretation

Electrons in atoms can only occupy certain fixed Electrons in atoms can only occupy certain fixed orbits or “energy levels”.orbits or “energy levels”.

These energy positions are quantized, meaning These energy positions are quantized, meaning only certain values are possible within an atom.only certain values are possible within an atom.
