Gallium does not occur as a free element in nature, but rather as gallium(III) compounds in trace amounts in zinc ores (such as sphalerite) and in bauxite. Elemental gallium is a liquid at temperatures greater than 29.76 °C (85.57 °F), and will melt in a person's hands at normal human body temperature of 37.0 °C (98.6 °F).
Galinstan is a brand name for an alloy composed of gallium, indium, and tin which melts at −19 °C (−2 °F) and is thus liquid at room temperature. [4] [5] In scientific literature, galinstan is also used to denote the eutectic alloy of gallium, indium, and tin, which melts at around +11 °C (52 °F). [5]

Liquid Metal may refer to: A liquid metal, which has a relatively low melting point, such as mercury, tin or lead; Any metal in a liquid state; Mercury, the only metal to be liquid at room temperature; Liquid metallic hydrogen; Liquidmetal, a type of metallic glass; Liquid Metal (Sirius XM), a radio channel
Gallium(III) chloride is an inorganic chemical compound with the formula GaCl 3 which forms a monohydrate, GaCl 3 ·H 2 O. Solid gallium(III) chloride is a deliquescent white solid and exists as a dimer with the formula Ga 2 Cl 6. [2] It is colourless and soluble in virtually all solvents, even alkanes, which is truly unusual for a metal halide.
Gallium trichloride is a common starting reagent for the formation of organogallium compounds, such as in carbogallation reactions. [15] Gallium trichloride reacts with lithium cyclopentadienide in diethyl ether to form the trigonal planar gallium cyclopentadienyl complex GaCp 3. Gallium(I) forms complexes with arene ligands such as ...
BaZnGa (barium zinc gallide) is a ternary compound of barium, zinc, and gallium that was inspired by the saying "Bazinga!" from Sheldon Cooper on The Big Bang Theory television series. [1] It is a poor metal. BaZnGa crystals can be grown by adding gallium to a BaZn eutectic at 800° C and then cooling to 400 °C. Hot liquid BaZn is hard to ...
Gallium monoiodide is an inorganic gallium compound with the formula GaI or Ga 4 I 4. It is a pale green solid and mixed valent gallium compound, which can contain gallium in the 0, +1, +2, and +3 oxidation states. It is used as a pathway for many gallium-based products.
