Answer : Inorganic Chemist.

Explanation : When Joseph Priestly discovered and described the chemical properties of oxygen, then he would be considered as inorganic chemist.

As the physical and chemical properties of elements are studied under the branch of inorganic chemistry, therefore he would be considered as an inorganic chemist.
