Niobium‚ with a chemical symbol of Nb‚ is the lustrous light gray ductile metallic element that resembles tantalum chemically‚ and proves to be an extremely essential yet fascinating transition element. With an atomic number of 41‚ niobium combines strength‚ a high melting point‚ resistance to chemical attack‚ and a low neutron absorption cross-section. All of this promotes its use in the nuclear industry‚ especially in control rods of nuclear reactors. The prices of niobium are reasonable too‚ at

scientists‚ but perhaps in the future the periodic table may be improved. The article shows how the periodic table was improved upon over the years. “It was Lavoisier who wrote the first extensive list of elements - containing 33 elements. He distinguished between metals and non-metals‚ dividing the few elements known in the 1700’s into four classes. Then John Dalton made atoms even more convincing‚ suggesting that the mass of an atom was it’s most important property.” In this quote the author exhibits the

The purpose of the lab was to find out the chemical elements based on the color of the flame that elements make by their reaction. The work we completed in the lab was testing the chemical effects of the flame from the chemicals. We tested different elements and wrote down our observations. I accomplished the knowledge of testing chemicals and making responses based on our observations.Electrons are the particles found in the chemicals that may be responsible for the production of colored light.

Minerals are elements that originate in the Earth and cannot be made by living organisms. They are natural compounds formed through geological processes and are what remains as ash when plant or animal tissue is burned or decompose completely after death. Minerals are inorganic substances which means they are not formed by living matter and contain no carbon‚ and can be simply defined as chemical molecules which cannot be reduced to simpler substances. To be classified as a "true" mineral‚ a substance

The Magnesium Oxide Lab In a compound the atoms of different elements are present in numbers whose ratio is usually an integer or a simple fraction. The simplest (or empirical) formula of the compound expresses that ratio. Simplest formulas are determined by establishing the mass of each element present in a sample of the compound. From those masses one finds the number of moles of each element present. The mole ratio is also the atom ratio in the compound and that ratio provides the subscripts
