Atoms may form different ions and have different oxidation states, even Osmium. Ok, so what are the common oxidation states for an atom of Os?
Note: Learn more about the oxidation states here.
In the case of Osmium the most common oxidation states is (2,3,(4),6,8). There are also cool facts about Osmium that most don't know about. Let me show you...

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.
To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:
Luz, Gelson. "Oxidation States of Osmium (Os) [& Origin, Uses, Discovery ..." Materials. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>
Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.
