Bronze Density (8-14% Sn)

The Mean Density of Bronze (8-14% Sn) is 8150.0 kg/m³

Mean Density

The mean density, or more precisely, the mean volumetric mass density, of a substance is the average mass per unit volume of a substance in its most common or naturally occurring state.  The vCalc symbol for mean density is `muD`.  The standard units for mean density are kilograms per cubic meter.  However, vCalc provides automatic conversions to other units via the pull-down menu including:

• (lb/ft³): pound per cubic foot
• (g/cm³): grams per cubic centimeter
• (t/m³): metric tons per cubic meter
• (ton/yd³): tons (U.S.) per cubic yard
• (oz/in³): ounces per cubic inch

Metals are materials characterized by its physical and chemical properties, primarily its ability to conduct electricity and heat, its luster or shine when polished, its malleability (ability to be hammered or pressed into shapes), and its ductility (ability to be drawn into wires). Metals typically have a crystalline structure and are found naturally in solid form (with the exception of mercury, which is a liquid at room temperature).

Metals make up a large portion of the periodic table of elements, with examples including iron, copper, gold, silver, aluminum, and titanium, among many others. Metals are essential in various industries such as construction, manufacturing, electronics, transportation, and energy production due to their unique properties and versatility.

Metals are generally dense materials. Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume. Metals tend to have high densities because their atoms are closely packed together in a crystalline structure. This close packing of atoms contributes to their characteristic properties such as strength, malleability, and conductivity.

However, it's important to note that the density of metals can vary widely depending on factors such as their elemental composition, crystal structure, and any impurities present. For example, some metals like lead and platinum are denser than others like aluminum or magnesium.

The Weight of Metal Calculator contains functions and data to compute the weight (mass) of metal objects based on their size, shape and the density of the metal.  The Weight of Metal functions are:

• Cylinder Weight: Computes the weight (mass) of a cylinder based on the radius, length (height) and density of metal.
• Sphere Mass: Computes the mass (weight) of a sphere based on the radius and density of metal.
• Hemisphere Mass: Computes the mass (weight) of a hemisphere based on the radius and density of metal.
• Weight of Metal Bars: Computes the mass (weight) of a number of metal flats or metal bars based on the dimensions and density of metal.
• Weight of Metal Rods: Computes the mass (weight) of a number of metal rods based on the dimensions and density of metal.
