Known

One of the questions the ancients asked themselves was whether the matter was continuous or not. The idea that matter could be made up of atoms (that is, not continuous) dates back to ancient Greece.

The atomic idea was used in the early 1800s by John Dalton. He was able to successfully explain the nature of chemical reactions by proposing that all matter is made of atoms.
