Tantalum is a chemical element; it has symbol Ta and atomic number 73. Previously known as tantalium , [ citation needed ] it is named after Tantalus , a figure in Greek mythology. [ 11 ] Tantalum is a very hard, ductile , lustrous , blue-gray transition metal that is highly corrosion-resistant.
Group 5 is a group of elements in the periodic table.Group 5 contains vanadium (V), niobium (Nb), tantalum (Ta) and dubnium (Db). [1] This group lies in the d-block of the periodic table.
Group 6, numbered by IUPAC style, is a group of elements in the periodic table.Its members are chromium (Cr), molybdenum (Mo), tungsten (W), and seaborgium (Sg). These are all transition metals and chromium, molybdenum and tungsten are refractory metals.
Chemical symbols are the abbreviations used in chemistry, mainly for chemical elements; but also for functional groups, chemical compounds, and other entities. Element symbols for chemical elements, also known as atomic symbols, normally consist of one or two letters from the Latin alphabet and are written with the first letter capitalised.
A piece of columbite–tantalite, size 6.0 × 2.5 × 2.1 cm. Coltan (short for columbite–tantalites and known industrially as tantalite) is a dull black metallic ore from which the elements niobium and tantalum are extracted.
The mineral group tantalite [(Fe, Mn)Ta 2 O 6] is the primary source of the chemical element tantalum, a corrosion (heat and acid) resistant metal.It is chemically similar to columbite, and the two are often grouped together as a semi-singular mineral called coltan or "columbite-tantalite" in many mineral guides.
