Best Answer

Any element reacts with different elements to create a stable octet. (8 valence electrons). Niobium has 2 valence electrons, so it will react best with an element with 6 valence electrons, such as oxygen or sulfur. Basically, the elements with 6 valence electrons belong to group #16. Most elements strive to have a stable octet. Few can have a stable duet (hydrogen, helium).
