- Temperature Determine which temperature is higher, 110 °C or 180 °F. Determine which temperature is lower, 36 °C or 100 °F. The melting point of gallium is 29.8 °C. If you hold a sample of gallium in your hand, will it melt? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardSome hypothetical metal has simple cubic crystal structure. If its atomic weight is 67.1 g/mol and the atomic radius in atomic radius is 0.135 nm, calculate its theoretical density in g/cm3.

- A substance has a low melting point. It does not conduct electricity either when melted or in the solid. It is most likely: 1. Chlorine (Cl₂) 2. Diamond (C) 3. Copper (Cu) 4. Calcium oxide (CaO) 5.

After 10 minutes, the temperature of the top of the cube has risen by less than 1 °C. Element 2 is a moderately soft silvery-gray solid. A 5 cm x 5 cm square of it, only 1 mm thick, is flexed slightly by hand. The sheet snaps in half. Element 3 is a moderately soft silvery-gray solid. A small cube of it is put into a ceramic crucible and heated strongly. It melts about not far above room temperature. metal or nonmetal?

- Decide what kind of crystalline solid each element or compound in the table forms, and what kind of force holds the solid together. Then, rank the solids in order of decreasing melting point. That is, select "1" next to the solid with the highest melting point, "2" next to the solid with the next highest melting point, and so on.
