For a metal, zinc has relatively low melting (419.5 °C) and boiling point (907 °C). [29] The melting point is the lowest of all the d-block metals aside from mercury and cadmium; for this reason among others, zinc, cadmium, and mercury are often not considered to be transition metals like the rest of the d-block metals.

For a metal, zinc has relatively low melting (419.5 °C, 787.1 °F) and boiling points (907 °C, 1,665 °F). [8] Cadmium is similar in many respects to zinc but forms complex compounds. [ 16 ] Unlike other metals, cadmium is resistant to corrosion and as a result it is used as a protective layer when deposited on other metals.
Pewter has a low melting point, around 170–230 °C (338–446 °F), depending on the exact mixture of metals. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The word pewter is possibly a variation of " spelter ", a term for zinc alloys (originally a colloquial name for zinc).

The primary component of pot metal is zinc, but often the caster adds other metals to the mix to strengthen the cast part, improve flow of the molten metal, or to reduce cost. [dubious – discuss] With a low melting point of 420 °C (786 °F), zinc is often alloyed with other metals including lead, tin, aluminium, and copper.
Melting points (in blue) and boiling points (in pink) of the first eight carboxylic acids (°C). For most substances, melting and freezing points are approximately equal. For example, the melting and freezing points of mercury is 234.32 kelvins (−38.83 °C; −37.89 °F). [2]
