History
History | The element Thallium was discovered by W. Crookes in year 1861 in United Kingdom. Thallium derived its name from the Greek thallos, 'green twig'. | The element Hydrogen was discovered by H. Cavendish in year 1766 in United Kingdom. Hydrogen derived its name from the Greek elements hydro- and -gen meaning 'water-forming'. |
