Concept:The modern system of chemical symbols was introduced by Jöns Jacob Berzelius.
Explanation:In 1813, Berzelius proposed that each element should be represented by one or two letters derived from its Latin name.
For example, the symbol for lead (Pb) comes from the Latin word
plumbum.
This system was adopted by the mid-19th century and is still used today.
Berzelius is also known for his work on atomic weights, which contributed to modern chemistry.
John Dalton is known for his atomic theory, Antoine Lavoisier for the role of oxygen in combustion, and Robert Boyle for Boyle's law.
None of them introduced the system of element symbols.
