  2. Osmium compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmium_compounds

    Osmium(I) iodide is a metallic grey solid produced by the reaction of osmium tetroxide and hydroiodic acid heated in a water bath for 48 hours in a carbon dioxide atmosphere. It is an amorphous compound. [34] Osmium(II) iodide is a black solid [35] produced by the reaction of osmium tetroxide and hydroiodic acid at 250 °C in nitrogen: [34]

  3. Air flow meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_flow_meter

    An air flow meter is a device similar to an anemometer that measures air flow, i.e. how much air is flowing through a tube. It does not measure the volume of the air passing through the tube, it measures the mass of air flowing through the device per unit time, though Thus air flow meters are simply an application of mass flow meters for the ...

    Osmium (from Ancient Greek ὀσμή (osmḗ) 'smell') is a chemical element; it has symbol Os and atomic number 76. It is a hard, brittle, bluish-white transition metal in the platinum group that is found as a trace element in alloys, mostly in platinum ores. Osmium is the densest naturally occurring element.

  6. Osmium tetroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmium_tetroxide

    The osmium of OsO 4 has an oxidation number of VIII; however, the metal does not possess a corresponding 8+ charge as the bonding in the compound is largely covalent in character (the ionization energy required to produce a formal 8+ charge also far exceeds the energies available in normal chemical reactions). The osmium atom exhibits double ...

  9. Air sensitivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_sensitivity

    Air sensitivity is a term used, particularly in chemistry, to denote the reactivity of chemical compounds with some constituent of air.Most often, reactions occur with atmospheric oxygen (O 2) or water vapor (H 2 O), [1] although reactions with the other constituents of air such as carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO 2), and nitrogen (N 2) are also possible.
