History of The Components (Ba and ClO3)
- Barium
Barium was discovered by a Swedish chemist named Carl Wilhelm Scheele in 1774 in the form of BaO. For a short time it was called "Bologna Stones" because of its prevalence in Bologna and because of how dense it is.
- Chlorate
Research into the explosive abilities of chlorates dates back to 1788. There were many research facilities opened up in Europe to work with these compound but now a lot of evidence remain from them because most of them blew up. Due to this problem, chlorates have not been used in explosives for a long time. They are much too unstable.

Famous quotes containing the words history and/or components:
“The second day of July 1776, will be the most memorable epoch in the history of America. I am apt to believe that it will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival. It ought to be commemorated, as the day of deliverance, by solemn acts of devotion to God Almighty. It ought to be solemnized with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations, from one end of this continent to the other, from this time forward forever more”
—John Adams (1735–1826)
“Hence, a generative grammar must be a system of rules that can iterate to generate an indefinitely large number of structures. This system of rules can be analyzed into the three major components of a generative grammar: the syntactic, phonological, and semantic components.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
