In Vickers hardness test the for used is much lighter than the force used in Rockwell hardness test, The Rockwell hardness test is the considered to be the most routinely used technique to measure the hardness of materials because of its simplicity and because it does not require specific skills in order to perform it.

How hard is silver on the Mohs scale?

I don't found the Mohs hardness of plutonium but: - the Brinell hardness is 242 at r.m. - the Vickers hardness is 255 at r.m. After a hardness conversion chart an equivalent Mohs hardness may be 3,7.


How hard is 28 on the hardness scale?

In the common Mohs hardness scale used in geology, 10 is the maximum number, the hardness of diamond. There are several other hardness scales such as Vickers, and Brinell; but these have specialist engineering (not geologic) applications. In brief, Brinell 28 would be rather soft - about that of copper. In Vickers, this number would represent something even softer - around that of gold.

Can you consider hardness of a metal is one of physical property?

Yes, hardness is a physical property of a metal that describes its resistance to deformation or scratching. It is an important characteristic that can determine the metal's suitability for specific applications. Hardness can be measured using various methods such as Brinell hardness, Rockwell hardness, or Vickers hardness tests.


How hard is technetium?

Technetium is a relatively soft and malleable metal with a hardness comparable to that of silver or lead. It can be easily cut with a knife and has a low melting point, making it relatively easy to work with in a laboratory setting.
