In 1803AD, Osmium was discovered by Smithson Tennant when dissolving an impure sample of platinum in aqua regia, a mixture of hydrochloric and nitric acids. He was able to determine that the black powder left behind after dissolving the platinum was actually a mixture of two new elements, indium and osmium.
•Osmium is a bluish-white and shiny metal.
•Osmium is very hard and is brittle even at very high temperatures.
•Osmium has the lowast vapor pressure and the highest melting point among the platinum group of metals.
•Osmium's density is slightly more than iridium hence is credited as the heaviest element.
There are types of lens; concave and convex lens.
The concave lens is a lens which has an inward curve in the middle, that is, the edges of the curve are thicker than the center of the lens, because of this, any light that enter the lens will spread out [diverge]. An image will look smaller and upright when viewed by a concave lens. Image formed by concave lens are usually VIRTUAL.
A concave lens will produce a real image ONLY if the object is located beyond the focal point of the lens.
A convex lens is a converging lens, this is because, the center of the lens is thicker than its edges. Any ray of light that passes through the lens will converge at the middle of the lens at point called principal focus. A convex lens produce a VIRTUAL image when the object is placed infront of the focal point. The virtual image formed is always magnified and upright.<span />
Answer:
Argon is an element on the periodic table. It is a member of the noble gasses, meaning that it is a monoatomic pure gas. In other words, argon gas particles are simply pure single atoms of argon. ... Finally, water is a polyatomic molecule H2O composed of two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen.
Explanation:
Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the
particles in an object.
