Which metal melts at normal heat?

Ignoring Mercury which is liquid at normal temperatures anyway, there are many metal mixtures which melt at modest temperatures.

Gallium has a melting point about 30oC. It will melt in your hand!

There are some metal mixtures that will melt below the boiling point of water - Woods Metal is one, and Field's metal another that have low melting points and are commercially used in fire detection equipment.

Dozens of mixtures exist for solders, and also for brazing.

When two metals are mixed, the combination will usually have a lower melting point than either alone, this is called the eutectic point.

In the above I use 'mixture' loosely - many are in fact alloys.

What melts metal?

Metal is melted using heat, typically through the use of a furnace or torch that reaches temperatures higher than the melting point of the specific metal. The heat causes the metal to reach its melting point, at which point it transforms from a solid state to a liquid state.

Does ice melt faster on metal or plastic?

Ice melts faster on metal because metal is a good conductor of heat, allowing heat energy to transfer quickly to the ice. Plastic is a poor conductor of heat, so it retains heat better and slows down the melting process of ice.
