Often used as a catalyst in oil-cracking operations, its chloride/ammonia compound is used to treat testicular cancer.
Irving Langmuir developed a theory of catalysis based on gas film formation on this element. Often used as a catalyst in oil-cracking operations, its chloride/ammonia compound is used to treat testicular cancer. Discovered independently by Uloa and Wood, its linear relationship between temperature and electrical resistance allows it to be used with rhodium in high-temperature thermocouples. FTP, identify this group 10, period 6 metal with chemical symbol P-T.
