Sir Humphrey Davy discovered potassium in 1807 by isolating the element from potassium hydroxide using electrolysis. He used a voltaic pile to pass an electric current through the compound, leading to the isolated element being deposited on a cathode.
No he did not. Carl Wilhelm Scheele discovered it, but he wasn't sure if it was a new element or not. After he died Sir Humphry Davy figured out that chlorine was in fact a new element. How old are asker? I'm twelve.
Boron was discovered in 1808 by Sir Humphry Davy and Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac.
The founder of chlorine is Humphry Davy, a British chemist who discovered the element in 1810.
Jons Jakob Berzelius discovered and classified boron as an element in 1824. It was first isolated by Sir Humphry Davy, Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac and Louis Jacques Thénard in 1808. The first pure boron was produced by the American chemist W. Weintraub in 1909, although as usual, this is disputed by some researchers.
Yes, by the electrolysis of molten potassium hydroxide in a voltaic pile. Davy discovered this element with a battery. Sorry if the answer's not quite accurate!!!
Humphrey Davy
Two elements that were discovered using the battery are potassium and sodium. These discoveries were made by Sir Humphry Davy in the early 19th century through his experiments with electrolysis using a voltaic pile battery.

Sodium was discovered by Humphry Davy in 1807.
in England by Sir Humphry Davy, a British scientist, in 1807
Sodium is not synthetic. It is a natural element.
Chlorine was discovered by Carl Wilhelm Scheele in 1774. However, Sir Humphry Davy is credited with recognizing chlorine as an element in 1810.
That would be Sir Humphry Davy in the year 1807
