Nitric acid (HNO3) has been known to alchemists as aqua fortis (strong water). The discovery of this acid is credited to the Muslim polymath Jabir ibn Hayyan, who describes it some time around 800 AD. Joseph-Louis Gay-Lussac and Claude-Louis Berthollet determined the chemical composition of nitric acid in 1816, and links can be found below to check facts and learn more.
Daniel Rutherford discovered nitrogen, but he first called it noxious air. The name Nitrogen comes from the Greek word "nitron genes" meaning "nitre" and "forming" and the Latin word "nitrum".
