Antoine JÌ©rÌ«me Balard (September 30, 1802 - April 30, 1876) was a French chemist. In 1826 he discovered in seawater a substance which he recognized as a previously unknown element and named bromine.

He is best remembered for his decades-long advocacy for the atomic theory and for ideas about the structures of chemical compounds. No photographer credited, undated.
