Tantalate

A commercially important example is heptafluorotantalate (TaF72−) and its potassium salt (K2TaF7).

Many oxides of tantalum are called tantalates.

They are viewed as derivatives of "tantalic acid", hypothetic compounds with the formulas Ta2O5·nH2O[1] or HTaO3[2]).

Polyoxometallates containing tantalum provide examples of discrete tantalum oxides that exist in solution.
