When tantalum enrichment is observed, it is probably due to loss of more water-soluble elements in aerosols in the clouds. [87] Pollution linked to human use of the element has not been detected. [88] Tantalum appears to be a very conservative element in biogeochemical terms, but its cycling and reactivity are still not fully understood.
Potassium heptafluorotantalate is an intermediate in the industrial production of metallic tantalum. Its production involves leaching tantalum ores, such as columbite and tantalite, with hydrofluoric acid and sulfuric acid to produce the water-soluble hydrogen heptafluorotantalate. [2] Ta 2 O 5 + 14 HF → 2 H 2 [TaF 7] + 5 H 2 O
These arise from the salt metathesis reactions of sodium cyclopentadienide and tantalum pentachloride. An example of this is the first transition metal trihydride, Cp 2 TaH 3. More soluble and better developed are derivatives of pentamethylcyclopentadiene such as Cp*TaCl 4, Cp* 2 TaCl 2, and Cp* 2 TaH 3. [4] Tantalum Alkylidene Olefin Metathesis

Tantalum pentoxide, also known as tantalum(V) oxide, is the inorganic compound with the formula Ta 2 O 5. It is a white solid that is insoluble in all solvents but is attacked by strong bases and hydrofluoric acid. Ta 2 O 5 is an inert material with a high refractive index and low absorption (i.e. colourless), which makes it useful for coatings ...
The tables below provides information on the variation of solubility of different substances (mostly inorganic compounds) in water with temperature, at one atmosphere pressure. Units of solubility are given in grams of substance per 100 millilitres of water (g/(100 mL)), unless shown otherwise. The substances are listed in alphabetical order.
The following chart shows the solubility of various ionic compounds in water at 1 atm pressure and room temperature (approx. 25 °C, 298.15 K). "Soluble" means the ionic compound doesn't precipitate, while "slightly soluble" and "insoluble" mean that a solid will precipitate; "slightly soluble" compounds like calcium sulfate may require heat to precipitate.
With the addition of squarate or perchlorate, the tantalum complex dimerises in acetonitrile, with their respective chelating ligands bridging the Ta centres. These seven-coordinate complexes of the form TaMe 3 L 2 , where L is a bidentate monoanion, are markedly more thermally stable than their precursor, decomposing in the range 80 - 120°C.
