Abstract:Measurements of the solubilities of niobium and tantalum pentachlorides in liquid titanium tetrachloride have been reported on several occasions.1-4 In one case1 the solubility of the tantalum compound was said to vary between 26 and 60 times that of the niobium compound in the range 25-100'. Such a marked difference in properties between these elements is unexpected. Subsequent reported work indicated that the solubilities of the chlorides were of the same order but there was no general agreement on values; o… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
