The chlorine trifluoride (ClF3) was obtained for the first time by Ruff, Ascher, Fischer and Laass in 1928 (see Z. anorg. Chem., 176, 258, 1928).
Carl Wilhelm Scheele but it wasn't until 1810 when it was identified as Chlorine by Sir Humphry Davy.
Chlorine was observed for the first time by Jan Baptist van Helmont near 1630 (in Holland) and prepared for the first time in laboratory by Carl Wilhelm Scheele in 1774 (in Sweden), but considered it to be a compound of oxygen. Sir Humphry Davy (in England) named it after identifying chlorine as a chemical element in 1810.
Chlorine is very reactive. Fluorine is very very veryreactive. It's much easier to isolate chlorine than it is to isolate fluorine from their respective salts. Fluorine also has the nasty property of corroding just about anything it comes into contact with, in many cases explosively; fluorine and its compounds are responsible for the destruction of a great deal of laboratory equipment in the 19th century.

The formula for chlorine trifluoride is ClF3
ClF5 Is the formula for Chlorine pentaflouride.
polar
Chlorine trifluoride, ClF3, is used in the manufacture of uranium hexafluoride (UF6).
It is a polar covalent compound.
ClF3 The tri- indicates that there are three atoms of fluorine in the compound.
Chlorine was discovered earlier.
Chlorine was discovered in Sweden by Karl Scheele in 1774.
ethyne (or acetylene) is non polar
Boron trifluoride.
Nitrogen trifluoride is nitrogen trifluoride (NF3) !
Carl Wilhelm Scheele discovered chlorine in 1774. Chlorine wasn't confirmed to be an element until 1810. There is no recorded data of the month and day that it was discovered.
