k Baron Jons Jacob Berzelius 17791848, the Swedish chemist. He provided the first major systemization of 19th century chemistry, including the first accurate table of relative atomic masses for 28 elements in his list of 1828 the reintroduction and use of modern initial letter symbols for elements concepts including isomerism and catalysis the division of the subject into organic and inorganic branches and his theory of dualism, based on his work in electrochemistry. This theory proved first a spur and then an inhibitor to the later division of elements into the electropositive and electronegative classes. He discovered selenium, cerium and thorium.
