In fact, Bequerel had first discovered radioactivity from uranium in 1896, by fogging of photographic plates. The Curies however used an electrometer which her husband had invented, and which reacted to ionisation in the air, which was produced by radioactivity. This enabled her to deduce that radioactivity came from the atoms of the substance, not some sort of chemical reaction. She went on to discover radium in pitchblende, which was the first knowledge of it, and a number of other achievements. See the link below for more information on her discoveries.
She worked in Paris France.
She did not.Marie Curie and Pierre Curie discovered radium and polonium (among other radioactive substances). Jonas Sault discovered the polio vaccine.
Marie and Pierre Curie discovered that polonium and radium are natural radioactive chemical elements. Studying residues of uranium ores Marie Curie and Pierre Curie found that these residues are more radioactive than uranium; they attributed this radioactivity to unknown elements. They isolated these elements and named these elements polonium and radium.
Marie Curie was a specialist in the chemistry of radioactive elements.
Studying residues of uranium ores Marie Curie found that these residues are more radioactive than uranium; she attributed this radioactivity to a new element. She isolated this element and named polonium.
Polonium was discovered by Marie Curie and Pierre Curie in 1898.Radium was discovered by Marie Curie, Pierre Curie and G. Bemont also in 1898. Studying residues of uranium ores Marie Curie and Pierre Curie found that these residues are more radioactive than uranium; they attributed this radioactivity to unknown elements. They isolated these elements and named these elements polonium and radium.
