Derivatives

cobaltic

adjective kə(ʊ)ˈbɒltɪkkə(ʊ)ˈbɔːltɪkkoʊˈbɔltɪk

The cobaltic complex has also been synthesized by metal exchange from previously obtained sodium ascorbate and cobaltic dichloride hexahydrate in aqueous medium.
Example sentencesExamples
- An opportunity might have been lost for guiding mining operations to the working of any payable cobaltic vein.
- Hydrated cobalt oxide or cobaltic hydroxide is produced by adding sodium hydroxide to this solution.

cobaltous

adjective kə(ʊ)ˈbɔːltəskə(ʊ)ˈbɒltəs

We produce 300 tons of cobalt oxide and 180 tons of cobaltous oxide yearly, one of the largest production and sale bases in China.

Origin

Late 17th century: from German Kobalt 'imp, demon' (because the presence of cobalt-bearing ore made it more difficult to extract silver, and miners believed that it was harmful to the silver ore with which it occurred).

Cobalt is a hard silvery-white magnetic metal, often found in the ground alongside deposits of silver. The name comes from German Kobalt, a variation of the word Kobold meaning ‘goblin or demon’, and perhaps related to goblin. Medieval silver miners gave the metal this name because of the trouble it caused them. They believed that cobalt was harmful both to the silver ores with which it occurred and to their own health, though these effects were mainly due to the arsenic and sulphur with which it was frequently combined.
