Gadolinium is a chemical element with symbol Gd and atomic number 64. It is a silvery-white, malleable and ductile rare-earth metal. It is found in nature only in combined (salt) form. Gadolinium was first detected spectroscopically in 1880 by de Marignac who separated its oxide and is credited with its discovery. It is named for gadolinite, one o...

Gadolinium is a silvery white metal element with the symbol Gd of the group of rare earth metals. It is found in the mineral gadolinite. It is ferromagnetic (strongly attracted by a magnet). The metal is relatively stable in dry air, but in moist air it tarnishes with the formation of a loosely adhering oxide film which 'spalls' off and exposes mor...

Gadolinium is a member of the lanthanide group of elements, and is obtained from the same sources as europium. It is a silvery white metal which is ductile and malleable. It is stable in a dry atmosphere but forms an oxide coating when exposed to moist air. It reacts slowly with water and is soluble in acids. Gadolinium has limited uses as a pure m...
