The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.
In determining melting points of a refractory substance by this method, it is necessary to either have black body conditions or to know the emissivity of the material being measured. The containment of the high melting material in the liquid state may introduce experimental difficulties. Melting temperatures of some refractory metals have thus ...
The specific heat of the human body calculated from the measured values of individual tissues is 2.98 kJ · kg−1 · °C−1. This is 17% lower than the earlier wider used one based on non measured values of 3.47 kJ · kg−1· °C−1.
The Hüttig temperature for a given material is = where is the absolute temperature of the material's bulk melting point (usually specified in Kelvin units) and is a unitless constant that is independent of the material, having the value = according to some sources, [4] [8] or = / according to other sources.
Instead, the common practice is to measure the specific heat capacity at constant pressure (allowing the material to expand or contract as it wishes), determine separately the coefficient of thermal expansion and the compressibility of the material, and compute the specific heat capacity at constant volume from these data according to the laws ...
the heat at which water boils vehemently (the temperature at which water begins to boil is given as an additional value in the description, as 33) 40: melting point of an alloy of one part lead, four parts tin and five parts bismuth 48: 3: melting point of an alloy of equal parts of bismuth and tin 57: 3 + 1 ⁄ 4
Melting temperature may refer to: Melting point, the temperature at which a substance changes from solid to liquid state; Melting temperature, the temperature at ...
This relationship gives us our first hint that there is an absolute zero on the temperature scale, because it only holds if the temperature is measured on an absolute scale such as Kelvin's. The ideal gas law allows one to measure temperature on this absolute scale using the gas thermometer. The temperature in kelvins can be defined as the ...
