	Bernard Courtois Biography \| World of Chemistry
		Courtois was admitted to the famous engineering school in Paris, the École Polytechnique, where he studied under the chemist Antoine François, Comte de Fourcroy.
		In late 1811 Courtois apparently used too much acid and observed clouds of violet vapor, which had an irritating odor similar to that of chlorine and condensed on cold surfaces, to form dark, almost fl, lustrous crystals with a metallic sheen.
		Courtois was acknowledged as the discoverer of iodine, which was widely used in the treatment of goiter, and in 1831 the Dijon Academy awarded him the Montyon prize of 6,000 francs "for having improved the art of healing."

	Iodine - Properties, Courtois Discovers Iodine, Curing Goiters
		Courtois was barely making a living in his family's business of manufacturing saltpeter, which was used to make gunpowder.
		Although Courtois investigated the properties of the new substance by combining it with several other elements, he did not have enough time or money to follow through on his discovery.
		In 1814 J. Colin made an important discovery in microanalytical chemistry when he showed that iodine reacted with starch to produce a blue color so bright that iodine could be detected in amounts as low as one part in 400,000.

		One of Courtois' first jobs was to assist his father in making compounds of sodium and potassium from seaweed.
		Courtois and his father collected seaweed on the coasts of Normandy and Brittany in France.
		A mistake by Bernard Courtois led to clouds of beautiful violet vapor rising from a mixture on which he was working.

	Elements Named for Color
		Iodine was discovered by Bernard Courtois (1777-1838) who learned the manufacture of saltpeter from his father.
		In 1811 Courtois accidentally added excess sulfuric acid resulting in a violet vapor cloud that condensed on colder objects forming dark, lustrous crystals.
		Courtois suspected it was a new element and began production and sales, but turned over further investigation to his friends Charles-Bernard Desormes and Nicolas Clement who announced the discovery in 1813.

		Iodine was discovered in May 1811 by Bernard Courtois (1777-1838) in Dijon.
		In 1811 Courtois accidentally added excess sulphuric acid resulting in a violet vapor cloud that condensed on colder objects forming dark, lustrous crystals.
		Courtois suspected it was a new element, but because of lack of money he had to turned over further investigation to his friends, the French physicist and chemist Charles-Bernard Désormes (1777-1862), who did almost all his scientific work in collaboration with his son-in-law Nicolas Clément (1779-1841).

	Canadian IT Manager : Patricia MacInnis Computing Canada’s Editor talks with Bernard Courtois, President of ITAC
		Courtois and I had a frank discussion about the state of affairs in Canada's IT industry, mulling over such topics as the impending skills shortage, productivity gaps between Canada and the U.S. and the impact of offshore outsourcing.
		Courtois told me about a recent study conducted by the Centre for the Study of Living Standards in Ottawa that shows that small and medium enterprises in Canada are falling behind their U.S. counterparts in terms of investing in IT and communication technologies.
		Courtois said he's found that some uninformed high school career counsellors have been steering students away from careers in IT since the dot-com bust.

	The History of Iodine
		In 1811 when Bernard Courtois (1777-1838) discovered iodine, he was not searching for a way to heal his fellow humans.
		However, in the process of making saltpeter, excess sulfur compounds were created, forcing them to add sulfuric acid to the mixture to clean the compounds from their vats.
		He performed a few minor experiments with this new substance and noted that it combined well with phosphorous, hydrogen, and a few metals, but did not combine easily with oxygen or carbon.
