Francium is a natural chemical element but the total quantity of francium in the earth crust is only approx. 30 g. Francium has ca. 40 isotopes and isomers but only two are natural: 221Fr (in the neptunium decay chain series) and 223Fr (in the actinium decay chain series). Artificially preparation of francium isotopes is also extremely difficult and expensive; and the chemistry and physics of isotopes was developed essentially after 1940. Supplementary, the most stable isotope of francium has a half life of only 21,8 minutes and is strongly radioactive; the half lives of the artificially prepared isotopes are more smaller.
This is sufficient reason to explain why francium was later discovered and why even today is only slightly studied.

Francium exist only in very infinitesimal concentrations in uranium ores: it is extremely difficult to identify francium surely.
because it only has a half life of 22 minutes so by the time any one could get to it the francium had died
because franicum is soooo reactive
cause i needed a big pis and then got tired it was my fault it took so long [[[[:)
Alabama,Texas, New Mexico, and West coast line
He didn't.
Francium is the second rarest element on earth so that's probably why it took a little longer to discover.
Francium is named after France, which is where the element was isolated in 1939 by Marguerite Perey. Traces of francium occur naturally in uranium-containing minerals. francium is very rare so it took time to find it (i think)
because it only has a half life of 22 minutes so by the time any one could get to it the francium had died
Francium is a radioactive chemical element; the most known and stable isotope, 223Fr, has a half life of only 21,8 min. It is difficult in this case for francium to accumulate in the earth crust; the total quantity of francium in the earth crust is only ca. 30 g !
Element 87 (Francium) was discovered in 1939 by the French scientist Marguerite Perey. The pure element is hard to isolate, as it has a radioactive half-life of about 21 minutes. It is also one of the rarest elements: there is probably less than a hundred grams of it on Earth!

I'm doing homework on francium for my school the question is... The last element to be discovered had to wait until something else was discovered. What was this? So there had to be something else discovered before it was discovered but i don't know what that other something is help... my homeworkd due in tomorrow.
The chemistry of francium is practically unknown.
As francium is a chemical element, it is made up of protons, neutrons and electrons.
