Why does gallium melt in your hand?
Gallium has a low melting point of about 29.76°C (85.57°F), close to normal human body temperature. Therefore, when you hold a piece of solid gallium in your hand, the heat from your body causes it to quickly melt. This unique property makes gallium a popular demonstration material in science experiments.
What is gallium normal phase?
Gallium is low melting soft silvery metal, it literally will melt in your hand. Its normal phase is solid.
Which metal melt on human's palm?
Mercury and gallium. Actually, gallium is the one that would turn from a solid to a liquid in a person's hand.
A slogan for Gallium?
helps get ride of the rats 4 sure =) =( <3 helps get ride of the rats 4 sure =) =( <3
What is GA in the periodic table?
GA in the periodic table stands for Gallium. Gallium is a metal that is soft and silvery in appearance. It has a melting point just above room temperature, making it useful in certain types of thermometers.
Is gallium a liquid a metal?
At room temperature (25oC) and pressure, only two elements are liquid: Mercury and bromine. Gallium is not.
What element can be melted by holding it in your hand?
gallium its a non toxic metal so it can be melted in your hand but if you do this with say mercury ... your gunna die
What happens to gallium when it melts?
Gallium is a metal that is solid at room temperature but melts at a low temperature of 85.57°F (29.76°C). When gallium melts, it becomes a liquid with a silvery appearance. It has a unique property where it can remain in a liquid state over a wide temperature range.
Does gallium rust?
No. And if it were to rust, the rust could be easily removed by melting the gallium with your hand, or hot water, or anything above 85.59*F (29.77*C) :3
Which metal melts on the palm of the hand?
Francium melts at about 80oF. Cesium melts at about 83.4oF. Gallium melts at about 85.6oF. All of these are solid at room temperature but would melt in your hand. Rubidium melts at about 103.4oF, so that is just a little higher than body temperature. Mercury melts at 37.7oF, so it would certainly melt in your hand, but it would already be a liquid at room temperature.
Which element does gallium have more in common with germanium or indium?
Gallium has more in common with indium. Both gallium and indium are part of the same group on the periodic table, Group 13 (or Group IIIA), so they share similar chemical properties and trends. Germanium, on the other hand, is in Group 14 and therefore differs in its properties from gallium.
Is gallium and gallium nitrate the same?
No, gallium and gallium nitrate are not the same. Gallium is a chemical element, while gallium nitrate is a compound formed by combining gallium with nitric acid. Gallium nitrate is a salt that is commonly used in medical imaging and cancer treatment.
