TERBIUM [symbol Tb, atomic weight 159.2 (0=16)]

This article appears in Volume V26, Page 637 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: TAV-THE
TERBIUM [symbol Tb, atomic weight 159.2 (0=16)] , a metallic chemical
element
  belonging to the rare earth group; it was originally called erbia by its discoverer Mosander (see RARE EARTH). Pure
terbium
  compounds were obtained by G. Urbain (Compt. rend., 1904 seq.) by fractional crystallization of the nickel
double
  nitrates, the
ethyl
  sulphates, and the bismuth
double
  nitrates of the
terbium
  earths. Terbium appears to be trivalent. The
oxide
  is a black or
brown
  powder according as it is prepared from the exalate or sulphate, and when pure it is non-fluorescent, but mixed with gadolinia or alumina it possesses this property. It yields colourless salts; the crystallized sulphate has the
formula
  Tb2(SO4),.8H2O.
