    Blast From The Past: Fluorine

     

    French chemist Henri Moissan successfully isolated the element fluorine on June 26, 1886.
    He achieved this by electrolyzing a solution of potassium hydrogen difluoride in liquid hydrogen fluoride using an ingenious platinum apparatus. This breakthrough ended a decades-long quest that had cost the lives of several earlier scientists. 
    For this monumental achievement, Moissan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1906

Organized by the Automobile Club of France, it was won by Hungarian driver Ferenc Szisz driving a Renault.
