Dalton was the first scientist to use symbols for elements. Chemical symbols act as a vocabulary of chemical language. Chemical symbols are used to describe chemical changes with clarity and precision. Chemical symbols help in identifying specific elements. Chemical symbols also represent an atom of a particular element. Chemical symbols also signify the atomic mass of an element.
