Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first recorded attempt at creating a system to organise the elements was when Antoine Lavoisier published his table of elements in 1789. In 'Traite Elementaire de Chimie', Lavoisier listed 33 substances he considered elements, including light and caloric (heat).
