Methodology
Lead density and calculation basis
Evidence status: publishable.
Representative room-temperature density of elemental lead; not an alloy value.
temperature: Room temperature (density glossary)
composition: Elemental lead
Source basis: Royal Society of Chemistry, Periodic Table: lead. Fact box: density; glossary defines density at room temperature. https://periodic-table.rsc.org/element/82/lead Applicability: adopted-context.
No purity percentage or exact density temperature supplied.
For this direction, mass is calculated as volume multiplied by density after normalizing the units to cubic meters and kilograms. The resulting page multiplier is 0.0029574 ton (US) per cup (US).
Use a measured density for a specific batch, grade or supplier; the table value is a reference, not a product specification.
