Can you melt metal?

Yes you can, although some more eaisily than others as they all have different melting points. To find out the exact melting points you can google, for example:: 'Melting point of Iron' Melting metals is quite commonly used in industries to shape the metal into a mould, which is called 'Casting'.


What metal can withstand the most heat?

Tungsten has a very high melting point that's around 3500degrees, its used in radioactive equipment like x-ray machines so it can withstand electron beams and what not....


How hot does it have to be to melt metal?

You need to define "metal"- since different metals have VERY different melting points. Mercury is melted at room temp. Gallium can melt in boiling water. Lead and tin are mixed as solder, and melt at fairly low temps. Gold and silver melt at moderate low temps. Aluminum is higher. Steels and hi temperature tungsten alloys will glow white hot before melting. So- which metal did you have in mind


What is open induction furnace?

An open induction furnace is a type of melting furnace that uses electromagnetic induction to heat and melt metal. Unlike enclosed induction furnaces, it has an open design that allows for easier loading and unloading of materials, making it suitable for small to medium-scale metal processing. The furnace operates by generating heat through induced currents in the metal charge placed within a coil, which is powered by alternating current. This method provides efficient melting with precise temperature control, often used in applications such as foundries and metal recycling.


What are the main uses of brazing?

Brazing is the leading method of metal joining in many HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning) appliances and equipment. It is also commonly used in joining or repairing copper pipes. As a general rule, brazing is used when solid, leak proof joints must be made without melting the base metals (which rules welding and soldering out.)Where a filler metal is heated above and spread between two or more close-fitting parts by capillary action. The filler metal is brought a little above its melting temperature while protected by a good enough atmosphere.Then it flows over the base metal (known as wetting) and then is cooled to join the workpieces together.The temperatures used to melt the filler metal is above 842 °F.

How a thermometer can be used to check the purity of a metal?

A thermometer can be used to check the purity of a metal by measuring its melting or freezing point. Impurities in a metal can alter its melting point, so a pure metal should have a specific and consistent melting point. By comparing the measured melting point with the known melting point of the pure metal, the level of purity can be evaluated.

Does ionised metal have a lower melting point?

When a metal is ionised it forms a compound - depending on what the compound is and what metal we are talking about the melting point of the compound may be more or less than the mp of the metal
