what hypothesis led to the discovery of the proton?

The discovery of protons can be attributed to Rutherford. In 1886 Goldstein discovered existence of positively charged rays in the discharge tube by using perforated cathode. These rays were named as anode rays or canal rays.

The first evidence of quantization in atoms was the observation of spectral lines in light from the sun in the early 1800s by Joseph von Fraunhofer and William Hyde Wollaston. The notion of energy levels was proposed in 1913 by Danish physicist Niels Bohr in the Bohr theory of the atom.

First proposed by J. J. Thomson in 1904 soon after the discovery of the electron, but before the discovery of the atomic nucleus, the model tried to explain two properties of atoms then known: that electrons are negatively-charged particles and that atoms have no net electric charge.

Protons and neutrons are best known in their role as nucleons, i.e., as the components of atomic nuclei, but they also exist as free particles. ... A proton is composed of two up quarks and one down quark, while the neutron has one up quark and two down quarks.

In the first three minutes after the Big Bang, these protons and neutrons began fusing together, forming deuterium (also known as heavy hydrogen). Deuterium atoms then joined up with each other, forming helium-4.

The muon appeared to be its own distinct particle and so the muon (after the electron) was the second fundamental particle (i.e. one that doesn't seem to be made of other particles) to be discovered. Its discovery thus heralded the start of particle physics as a subject.

In 1911 Ernest Rutherford who performed many experiments to explore radioactivity did an experiment in which he discovered that the atom must have a concentrated positive center charge that contains most of the atom's mass. He suggested that the nucleus contained a particle with a positive charge the proton.

Initially these models were invented to describe the pattern of masses and spins of the so-called 'hadrons': strongly-interacting particles made-up of quarks that were produced in abundance in particle accelerators of the 50's and 60's. The key theorist behind these early models would probably be Gabriele Veneziano.

Protons, neutrons, and electrons are the three main subatomic particles found in an atom. Protons have a positive (+) charge. An easy way to remember this is to remember that both proton and positive start with the letter "P."

Protons were discovered by Ernest Rutherford in the year 1919, when he performed his gold foil experiment. He projected alpha particles (helium nuclei) at gold foil, and the positive alpha particles were deflected. He concluded that protons exist in a nucleus and have a positive nuclear charge.

Atomic number of an element shows the number of protons in the nucleus of that atom.

More than 200 subatomic particles have been discovered so far, all detected in sophisticated particle accelerators. However, most are not fundamental, most are composed of other, simpler particles. For example, Rutherford showed that the atom was composed of a nucleus and orbiting electrons.

✨Demerits of Mendeleev Periodic Table. He was unable to locate hydrogen in the periodic table. Increase in atomic mass was not regular while moving from one element to another. Hence, the number of elements yet to be discovered was not predictable.

The first modern definition of acids and bases in molecular terms was devised by Svante Arrhenius. A hydrogen theory of acids, it followed from his 1884 work with Friedrich Wilhelm Ostwald in establishing the presence of ions in aqueous solution and led to Arrhenius receiving the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1903.

Proton is an ionised hydrogen atom. A hydrogen atom is made up of one proton (present in the nucleus) and one electron (present outside nucleus). During ionisation of hydrogen atom, the electron is lost. Hence, only proton is left out.
