Hi folks - here is the Friday Element Quiz:

The Question:

        Only 5 metals have melting points higher than this element. It is
nontoxic and is used in biomedical implants. It is a constituent in
stainless steel, in nuclear fission reactor core structures, and is a
substitute for the element Ta for aqueous corrosion resistance processing
equipment. This element has nearly unlimited room temperature ductility
characteristics. This element that had two different names up to  the
early 1950's until the international chemist union settled the discussion
on which one was correct.  Who am I?


Since we gave away Doug's chair on the last quiz, I have been told that my
chair is on the block this week.
