   How did Jean Baptiste Perrin prove the atomic theory?

   • In 1905, after Albert Einstein published his explanation for ‘Brownian Motion’ in terms of atoms, Jean Baptiste Perrin conducted research to verify the same and was subsequently proved right in 1908. His experiments put an end to the several disputes regarding physical reality of molecules and settled the atomic theory.
