· Known for Dalton’s Atomic Theory.
· Symbols were used before standard chemical notations evolved.
· Also worked on gases and weather.
· His atomic model laid the foundation for modern chemistry.
· Proposed that atoms are indivisible (later modified).
Additional Information:
· Antoine Lavoisier: Known as the father of modern chemistry; discovered role of oxygen.
· Amedeo Avogadro: Known for Avogadro’s law and number, not symbols.
