Copper was discovered first, since it occurs naturally in its pure form and has been used by humans since ancient times. Arsenic, on the other hand, was discovered later and is a metalloid that is typically found in combination with other elements in minerals.
Arsenic was called "Devil's copper" by German miners due to its toxicity and resemblance to copper in color. However, arsenic is a hazardous element that can cause health issues if not handled properly.
Copper has been used since ancient times and was one of the first metals to be discovered and utilized by humans. Its discovery predates recorded history, but archaeological evidence suggests that copper was in use as far back as the 5th millennium BC.
Copper(II) chloride was first discovered by the French chemist Antoine-Francois Fourcroy in 1798.
The metal copper has been known since very ancient times. Chances are it was first produced by accident. Someone would have built a campfire and used rocks around the edge of the fire to contain it (as we still often do to this day) and if this person had happened to use a form of copper ore as the rocks for his campfire, they could have gotten hot enough that copper would have melted out of the rocks. And then, if this person was observant enough, he or she would have investigated further, to see if this strange substance had any particular uses (which of course it does) and whether more of it could be melted (or refined) out of more rocks (which of course it can).

Arsenic has been known since antiquity but was first isolated by Geber (721-815), an Arabian alchemist.Arsenic was first documented by Albertus Magnus (Germany) in 1250 AD.Albertus Magnus is the name of the man who discovered arsenic. Magnus was a German philosopher who lived from 1193-1280.
Copper, Arsenic, Antimony , Zinc, Bismuth, and Platinum. Yes, that is 6.
The first discovered element on Earth is likely copper. Copper has been used for thousands of years by various civilizations for tools, jewelry, and other applications. Its malleability, conductivity, and availability in nature made it an important material for early humans.

arsenic is an entirely different element from copper. atomic number of copper (Cu) is 29 and belongs to 11 th group of periodic table and atomic number of arsenic(As) is 33,from group 15 .

The earthworm would take in the copper and arsenic from the soil. The blackbird would eat it then the sparrowhawk would eat the blackbird. This may result with the sparrowhawk still having the copper and arsenic inside it. :)
Killing things.
Arsenic was discovered in 1250 by Albertus Magnus. The place of discovery is unknown. x
