∙ 12y agoAt the time in which he lived, the word 'molecule' was used for all basic particles of matter, including atoms. The Italian, Amadeo Avogadro believed that there were three different types of molecule including 'elementary molecules' (atoms).
About a hundred years before Avogrado, Anglo-Irishman Robert Boyle had hypothesised that matter was composed of clusters of particles which he called corpuscles.
A Frenchman, Nicolas Lemery used Boyle's corpuscle theory as the basis of his theory that molecules were bound together by a geometric lock.

∙ 13y agoThe idea of a molecule has been around since as early as the fifth century. Far later, around the seventeenth century intelligent scientists such as Epicurus, Democritus and Leucippus suggested that such a thing really did exist. That idea continued to evolve and nowadays is far more advanced.

∙ 11y agoWater's composition (two parts hydrogen to one part oxygen) was discovered by the London scientist Henry Cavendish(1731-1810) in about 1781. He reported his findings in terms of phlogiston (later the gas he made was proven to be hydrogen) and dephlogisticated air (later this was proven to be oxygen).
It has recently been suggested that H1.5O may better reflect the formula at very small (attosecond) timescales when some of the H-atoms appear invisible to neutron and electron interaction.The experimental results have since been questioned and described as erroneous , but have been more recently confirmed and thought due to a failure of the Born-Oppenheimer approximation (this assumes that the electronic motion and the nuclear motion in molecules can be separated). Thus the formula H1.5O is incorrect but such suggestions do, however, add support to the view that observations concerning the structure of water should be tempered by the timescale used.

How was Tetranitratoxycarbon discovered?
It was discovered accidentally by a ten year old girl called Clara Lazen in 2012.Clara was in a school science class, playing around with those assemble-yourself-molecules. Entirely by accident, she discovered the molecule we call Tetranitratoxycarbon. It's explosive.Click For A Related Article.
If molecules are so tiny how did they discover them?
we discovered them by doing a lot of test all over the world so we used a high technical microscope.
What molecules would you expect to dissolve in water polar covalent molecules ionic molecules nonpolar covalent molecules?

When water molecules stick to the molecules of other substance the molecules are displaying?
Adhesion is the ability of water molecules to stick to other molecules. Cohesion is the ability of water molecules sticking to one another.

Why atoms and molecules are invented?
The were not invented, they exist. Atoms and molecules were discovered.
When did they discover water molecules?
they discovered water molecules priestly in 1603 but they wanted to investigate water molecules so they knew if it was safe or not.

Who is Avagodro?
He is the scientist that discovered Avogadro's Law/Number, which is the number of atoms, molecules, or particles in 1 mole of a substance.
What other breakthroughs did Marie Curie's work lead to?
Marie Curie discovered Radium and Polonium. She also discovered that radiation comes from the atom itself rather than the interaction between molecules.
