Melting Point of Pure Metals
The melting point of a pure metal is determined by the strength of the bonds between its atoms. Stronger bonds require higher temperatures to melt, while weaker bonds melt at lower temperatures.
The following table provides a comprehensive list of melting point values for pure metals at one atmospheric (atm) pressure. (1 atm = 101,325 Pa)
