The Chemistry of Vanadium, Niobium and Tantalum gives a comprehensive discussion on the discovery, origin, and metallurgical aspects of vanadium, niobium, and tantalum. A section is also focused on the nuclear properties, as well as the physical and chemical properties of each compound. The history and distribution of vanadium, niobium, and tantalum are explored, along with the purification and extraction procedures of the said elements. The book also explores the derivative compounds such as the alloys, hydride, halides, and oxides. Another section of the book is focused on the physical and chemical modifications of the elements that generate such by-products as the cyanides, hydroxides, and sulfides. Different complexes of the elements such as halogeno- and oxyhalogeno-complexes are discussed in detail. The organometallic chemistry of niobium, tantalum, and vanadium are also identified. The book will be a useful tool for chemical engineers, chemical scientists, and students in the field of chemistry.

A readable, informative, fascinating entry on each one of the 100-odd chemical elements, arranged alphabetically from actinium to zirconium. Each entry comprises an explanation of where the element's name comes from, followed by Body element (the role it plays in living things), Element ofhistory (how and when it was discovered), Economic element (what it is used for), Environmental element (where it occurs, how much), Chemical element (facts, figures and narrative), and Element of surprise (an amazing, little-known fact about it). A wonderful 'dipping into' source for the familyreference shelf and for students.

Non-Stoichiometric Compounds: Tungsten Bronzes, Vanadium Bronzes and Related Compounds deals with the chemistry of non-stoichiometric compounds such as tungsten bronzes and vanadium bronzes. Topics covered include the thermodynamic basis for lattice defects and non-stoichiometry; thermodynamics of binary crystals; non-stoichiometry in ionic crystals; and interaction of defects. A structural view of non-stoichiometric compounds is also presented. Comprised of two parts, this volume begins with a historical account of developments in non-stoichiometry, focusing on the thermodynamic treatments and structural descriptions of non-stoichiometric compounds. The discussion then turns to the thermodynamic basis for lattice defects and non-stoichiometry, along with the thermodynamics of binary crystals and electronic defects in ionic crystals. Classical defect models are also described, and defect interactions in non-stoichiometric compounds are considered, together with the thermodynamics and crystallography in such compounds. The last section is devoted to tungsten bronzes, vanadium bronzes, and related compounds including bronzes of molybdenum, rhenium, niobium, tantalum, titanium, manganese, platinum, and palladium. This book is intended for inorganic chemists.

The present volume continues the description of the chemical reactions of eiemental tungsten started with "Tungsten" Suppl. Vol. A 7. It covers the reactions with the metallic elements from zinc to actinoids. The treatment includes phase diagrams, bulk reactions, and surface processes which again are of outstanding importance in most systems. The raader is referred to the introductory remarks on pp. X/XI.
