One was Ekeberg s tantalum and the other he called niobium (Niobe was the daughter of Tantalus). Despite the chronological precedence of the name columbium, lUPAC adopted niobium in 1950, though columbium is still sometimes used in US industry. Impure niobium metal was first isolated by C. W. Blomstrand in 1866 by the reduction of the chloride with hydrogen, but the first pure samples of metallic niobium and tantalum were not prepared until 1907 when W. von Bolton reduced the fluorometallates with sodium. 

In the past decade, the vision of a hydrogen-fuelled future has gained remarkable momentum with US policymakers and industry. The US Federal government pledged its support for hydrogen research, development and implementation when it announced a five-year, 1.2 billion programme that included the FreedomCar and... 

None of three US industry-based case-control studies suggested an association between exposure to hydrogen chloride and cancers of the lung, brain, or kidney. This result was consistent with a rodent bioassay in... 

Because of its significance in the petrochemical industry, a large body of work has accumulated about the hydrogenation of the parent compound acetylene. This allows us to summarize the reaction paths leading to all possible products involving n- and a-bonded species (Scheme 11.15).
