Plutonium is not a soft metal.
The Brinell hardness of plutonium is 242, the Vickers hardness is 255.
At room temperature plutonium is a solid metal.
Soft objects have a low rigidity and can easily change shape when pressure is applied, while hard objects have high rigidity and maintain their shape under pressure. Soft objects often have a smooth surface texture, while hard objects are typically rough or firm to the touch. Examples of soft objects include pillows or sponge, while examples of hard objects include rocks or metal.
Plutonium is an artificial chemical element, radioactive, unstable, toxic, solid, metal, member of the actinides group, Olivette very important for nuclear weapons and nuclear fuels, etc.
The density of solid plutonium is 19,816 g/cm3.
Soft metal
The hardness of plutonium metal is dependent on grain size dimensions of the metal; Vickers hardness (dph): 250-500.
It is a soft metal
hard
Sodium is considered a soft metal. It is malleable and easily cut with a knife.
The Brinell hardness of plutonium is 242, the Vickers hardness is 255.
A hard metal will act as an abrasive on a soft metal if they come in direct contact. The hard metal will cut grooves in the soft metal.
It can be soft or hard.
It is a metal.
Caesium is classified as a soft metal. It has a low melting point and can be easily cut with a knife.
No, plutonium is a radioactive metal, not a semi-metal. It belongs to the actinide series of the periodic table.
No they are hard, but gold is a relatively soft metal.
