Element #76 is Osmium, a chemical element in the periodic table. 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 has the highest melting point and lowest vapor pressure of the platinum group elements. It is also the densest naturally occurring element and has the highest tensile strength. Osmium is used in alloys, electrical contacts, and fountain pen tips.
