Vanadium Single Crystal 73V50.942
Vanadium was discovered in 1801 by A.M. del Rio at Mexico City, Mexico. Rediscovered in 1831 by N.G. Selfström at Falun, Sweden.
[Named after Vanadis, a Scandidavian goddess] French: vanadiumGerman: vanadium
Italian: vanadio
Spanish: vanadio
Description: Vanadium is a shiny, silvery metal, which is soft when pure. It resists corrosion due to a protective film of oxide on the surface. Vanadium is attacked by concentrated acids, but not alkalis, not even when these are molten. The metal is used mainly as alloys, especially in steels.
