History
History | The element Astatine was discovered by R. Corson,R. MacKenzie and E. Segrè in year 1940 in United States. Astatine derived its name from the Greek astatos, 'unstable'. | The element Oxygen was discovered by W. Scheele in year 1771 in Sweden and United Kingdom. Oxygen derived its name from the Greek word oxy-, both 'sharp' and 'acid', and -gen, meaning 'acid-forming'. |
