NILSON L. F. LARS FREDRIK. THE DISCOVERY OF A NEW ELEMENT SCANDIUM.
Sur l'ytterbine terre nouvelle de M. Marignac. Sur le scandium �l�ment nouveau.
Paris Gauthier-Villars 1879. 4to. No wrappers. In: "Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des S�ances de L'Academie des Sciences" Tome 88 No 12. Pp. 625- 676. Entire issue offered. Nilson's papers: pp. 642-645 a. 645-648. First leaf with a tear to right margin no loss of paper. � First apperance of the papers in which Nilson describes his discovery of a new element and its properties and naming it Scandium. It was the second new element found after Mendeleev's prediction of its existence as "Eka-Boron".<br><br>"Mendel�eff had predicted that another element which he called eka-boron and which he said would have an atomic weight between 40 calcium and 48 titanium would some day be revealed. It was discovered in 1879 by Lars Fredrik Nilson. Nilson extracted 63 grams of the rare earth erbia from gadolinite and euxenite and converted it into the nitrate. Upon decomposing this salt by heat as Marignac had done he obtained some very pure ytterbia and to his great surprise an earth that was unknown to him.Upon thoroughly investigating this new earth he found that it contained an element whose properties concided almost exactly with those Mendel�ef had predicted for ekaboron. Nilson called it scandium in honour of his fatherland."Weeks "Discovery of the Elements" pp. 219-20.<br><br>Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1879 C. unknown
