	Berzelius, Jöns Jakob
		Berzelius lost both his parents in his childhood but nevertheless received good secondary education in Linköping and was able to enrol in 1796 at the University of Uppsala to study medicine.
		Berzelius preferred chemistry to medicine but had to first serve as regional physician near Stockholm before the wealthy mine-owner W. Hisinger provided him with laboratory facilities in Stockholm.
		Berzelius was undoubtedly the leading chemical authority in Europe during the first half of the 19th century.

		JÃ¶ns Jacob Berzelius (August 20, 1779 - August 7, 1848) was a Swedish chemist, who invented modern chemical notation and is considered one of the fathers of modern chemistry (along with John Dalton and Antoine Lavoisier).
		In discovering that the atomic weights were also not integer multiples of hydrogen's, Berzelius also disproved Prout's hypothesis that elements were built up from atoms of hydrogen.
		In order to aid his experiments, he developed a system of chemical notation in which the elements were given simple written labels -- such as O for oxygen, or Fe for iron -- and proportions were noted with numbers.

		He moved from the hierachal duality of acids and salts proposed by Stahl and Lavoisier to his own duality which saw substances composed of the generic and specific and eventually to one of compounds being made up of positive and negative portions.

		Jons Jacob Berzelius was born at Vaversande, Ostergotland, in Sweden, in 1779.
		Berzelius was greatly disenchanted with the inaccuracy and inadequacy of the methods of analysis in use in his day.
		In his autobiography Berzelius notes, many times I had to repeat my analysis with different methods to find that method which was most certain to give the correct result', that is the result in accordance with the atomic theory.

		Berzelius was born in Väversunda, Sweden, on August 20, 1779.
		Based upon the results of his research, Berzelius arrived at a theory of the composition of compounds, asserting that all compounds consist of both electrically positive atoms and electrically negative atoms.
		Berzelius' dualistic or electrochemical theory became popular, especially in the field of mineralogy, but he was unsuccessful in adapting the theory to organic compounds, and the idea eventually fell out of favor with chemists.

		Berzelius embarked on a systematic program to try to make accurate and precise quantitative measurements and insure the purity of chemicals.
		Berzelius developed the radical theory of chemical combination, which holds that reactions occur as stable groups of atoms called radicals are exchanged between molecules.
		He believed that salts are compounds of an acid and bases, and discovered that the anions in acids would be attracted to a positive electrode, whereas the cations in a base would be attracted to a negative electrode.

		Jons Jacob Berzelius, shown here as a student at Upsala University in 1799, was destined to become one of th most celebrated scientists of his era, and an honored member of almost every learned society in Europe.
		The atomic weights used today are essentially his, as are the symbols for the elements and the way in which we write chemical formulas, and his love of words gave us the terms isomer, polymer, allotrope, and protein.
		The aging Berzelius, his health severely compromised by a life amid toxic vapors in a nearly unventilated work space, persisted until the end, even as some of his most cherished theories were being demolished by a new generation of chemists.
