- Norman E. Holden. (2001) History of the Origin of the Chemical Elements and Their Discoverers. Prepared for the 41st IUPAC General Assembly in Brisbane, Australia, June 29th - July 8th, 2001. | Free PDF download.
- 'Origin' here refers to the 'origin of discovery' on Earth: "....the origin of the chemical elements show a wide diversity with some of these elements having an origin in antiquity, other elements having been discovered within the past few hundred years and still others have been synthesized within the past fifty years via nuclear reactions on heavy elements since these other elements are unstable and radioactive and do not exist in nature."
- Sections:
- Introduction
- Determining The Names Of The Chemical Elements
- Special Difficulties With The Rare Earth Elements
- Controversial Heavy Elements
- Individual Element Names And History
- Alphabetical list by element name, giving the origin of their names and information on their discoverers and/or isolaters.
- Trapp D. (2007) The Chemical Elements: Their Discovery and the Origins of their Names.
- "This is an effort to present the history of the discovery of the chemical elements and the origins of their names in a way that is both useful and interesting. In some cases enough information is provided so that with adequate caution, an interested chemist might duplicate some of the historical chemistry that led to our current understanding. It is hoped that the following screens provide an enjoyable way to learn more about the chemical elements that comprise our world."
