We do not know- copper was one of the first metals used by humans, and THAT first use was about 11,000 years ago. No records from that long ago.

By whom and when was copper discovered?

The metal copper has been known since very ancient times. Chances are it was first produced by accident. Someone would have built a campfire and used rocks around the edge of the fire to contain it (as we still often do to this day) and if this person had happened to use a form of copper ore as the rocks for his campfire, they could have gotten hot enough that copper would have melted out of the rocks. And then, if this person was observant enough, he or she would have investigated further, to see if this strange substance had any particular uses (which of course it does) and whether more of it could be melted (or refined) out of more rocks (which of course it can).


The element sn was discovered by whom in what year?

Sn is the chemical symbol for the metal Tin. Towards the end of the period referred to by archaeologists as the Stone Age, skilled metal workers discovered that adding a small ammount of tin to copper produced a metal which was harder and more durable than the pure copper they had been using for making tools etc. This alloy is now known as Bronze, and the invention of it started the next period which archaeologists refer to as the Bronze Age. This all happened approximately 5000 years ago, or 3000 BC.
