Biologically, this element is found in the F430 prosthetic group of methanogenic bacteria, and in humans, it is found the active site of urease.
Biologically, this element is found in the F430 prosthetic group of methanogenic bacteria, and in humans, it is found the active site of urease. This element is usually extracted from either laterites or pentlandites, and most of it is mined from the Sudbury basin and purified by the Mond process. Its 48 isotope has been discovered to be doubly magic, and its 59 isotope is used in radiometric dating of meteors. When an alloy of this element and aluminum is treated with NaOH, it forms a hydrogenation catalyst named for Raney, and slow-moving electrons were fired at a target of this element in the Davisson-Germer experiment. FTP, name this element commonly used in coins, with atomic number 28 and symbol Ni.
