What things are hot enough to melt metals?

That depends on the metal: mercury is already liquid at room temperature, gallium will melt in your hand, many alloys will melt in hot water, but other metals do have to be heated to thousands of degrees before they melt.


Why wont microwaves melt metal?

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 happens when a metle poker is put in fire?

When a metal poker is put in fire, it will heat up due to the flames and can reach high temperatures. Depending on the metal composition, it may start to glow red or even melt if the fire is hot enough. It's important to handle it with care to avoid burns or injury.
