Sodium metavanadate is the inorganic compound with the formula NaVO3.[1] It is a yellow, water-soluble salt.

Sodium metavanadate is a common precursor to other vanadates. At low pH it converts to sodium

decavanadate. It is also precursor to exotic metalates such as [γ-PV2W10O40]5-, [α-PVW11O40]4-, and [β-PV2W10O40]5-.[2]

Minerals

Sodium metavanadate occurs as two minor minerals,

dihydrate, munirite. Both are very rare, metamunirite is now known only from vanadium- and uranium-bearing sandstone formations of central-western USA and munirite from Pakistan and South Africa.[3]
