Osmium Amounts (solid pure metal)

This calculator page for Osmium is based on the pure osmium with symbol OS and density of ≅ 23 grams per one cubic centimeter, calculated not measured, 22.59g/cm³ precisely. Osmium is the densest element that can be found in the nature. It is hard metal and it alloys with platinum plus other metals from the platinum group. The hardness and resistance to scratching of osmium could be compared with the hardness of synthetic diamonds or sapphire. For its hardness, durability and high-wear resistant properties osmium is used for making electrical contacts where long time continuous use is demanded; such as electromechanical relays and other switches applications where the material's wear-resistance is important. Old gramophone needles were made out of osmium in the past. Osmium as a metal isn't often used in it's pure form, unalloyed, because unfortunately this metal is quite toxic.

Convert osmium measuring units between sphere 1 centimeter in diameter (d, ∅ 1 cm) and pounds (lb) of osmium but in the other direction from pounds into solid ∅ 1 cm spheres.

How many pounds of osmium are in 1 sphere 1 centimeter in diameter? The answer is: The change of 1 d, ∅ 1 cm ( sphere 1 centimeter in diameter ) unit of a osmium amount equals = to 0.026 lb ( pound ) as the equivalent measure for the same osmium type.

In principle with any measuring task, switched on professional people always ensure, and their success depends on, they get the most precise conversion results everywhere and every-time. Not only whenever possible, it's always so. Often having only a good idea ( or more ideas ) might not be perfect nor good enough solutions. Subjects of high economic value such as stocks, foreign exchange market and various units in precious metals trading, money, financing ( to list just several of all kinds of investments ), are way too important. Different matters seek an accurate financial advice first, with a plan. Especially precise prices-versus-sizes of osmium can have a crucial/pivotal role in investments. If there is an exact known measure in d, ∅ 1 cm - solid ∅ 1 cm spheres for osmium amount, the rule is that the sphere 1 centimeter in diameter number gets converted into lb - pounds or any other unit of osmium absolutely exactly. It's like an insurance for a trader or investor who is buying. And a saving calculator for having a peace of mind by knowing more about the quantity of e.g. how much industrial commodities is being bought well before it is payed for. It is also a part of savings to my superannuation funds. "Super funds" as we call them in this country.
