atomic number 23

A scientist points to the atomic number 23 on a large periodic table poster.

Definition

Noun: 1. A chemical element: A soft, silvery-white, ductile, and malleable transition metal. It is toxic in some compounds. Its primary industrial use is as an additive to steel to increase its strength, toughness, and resistance to corrosion and high temperatures. It is not found freely in nature but occurs in several complex mineral ores. * Symbol: V * Atomic Number: 23

Usage Examples
  • Noun:
    • The alloy's durability is enhanced by the addition of atomic number 23.
    • Scientists are studying catalysts containing atomic number 23 for new chemical processes.
    • The mineral sample was confirmed to contain atomic number 23.
Advanced Usage
  • In metallurgy: The term is used in scientific and industrial contexts to specify the pure element when discussing its properties or role in an alloy, as in "The steel contains 0.1% atomic number 23."
  • In chemistry and geology: Used to identify the element in discussions of mineral composition, chemical reactions, or the periodic table, e.g., "The oxidation states of atomic number 23 range from -1 to +5."
Variants and Related Words
  • Vanadium (n): The common name for atomic number 23. This is the term most frequently used in general scientific, industrial, and educational contexts.
    • Vanadium steel is used for tools and automotive parts.
  • Vanadate (n): A salt or ester of a vanadic acid, containing the anion VO₄³⁻ or similar.
  • Vanadinite (n): A mineral, Pb₅(VO₄)₃Cl, which is an ore of vanadium.
Synonyms
  • Vanadium: This is the direct and primary synonym.
  • Element 23: A less common synonym used in some scientific contexts, referring directly to its position on the periodic table.
  • V (Symbol): The chemical symbol is often used as a shorthand synonym in formulas and technical writing.
Related Phrases and Contexts
  • Transition metal: Atomic number 23 is classified as a transition metal.
  • Steel alloying agent: Describes its primary industrial function.
  • Trace element: It can be referred to as a trace element in some biological and geological systems.
