How do you get the element calcium?
In 1808, Humphry Davy invented a system for melting compounds of elements that were difficult to separate by usual methods. He passed an electric current through the compound, causing the compounds to break into parts. The element that he used this method on was calcium. By melting calcium carbonate (CaCO3)-which is a common compound of calcium-and passing an electric current, he was able to create a pure form of calcium.
