Kelvin (K) Fahrenheit (°F) Celsius (°C) Réaumur (°Ré) Rømer (°Rø) Newton (°N) Delisle (°D) Absolute zero: Lowest recorded surface temperature on Earth [1] Fahrenheit's ice/water/salt mixture: Melting point of ice (at standard pressure) Average surface temperature on Earth (15 °C) Average human body temperature (37 °C)
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.
T m = melting or freezing temperature of the liquid (in kelvins), T 0 = initial temperature of the mold (in kelvins), ΔT s = T pour − T m = superheat (in kelvins), L = latent heat of fusion (in [J·kg −1]), k = thermal conductivity of the mold (in [W·m −1 ·K −1)]), ρ = density of the mold (in [kg·m −3]), c = specific heat of the ...
{{Periodic table (melting point)|state=expanded}} or {{Periodic table (melting point)|state=collapsed}}This template's initial visibility currently defaults to autocollapse, meaning that if there is another collapsible item on the page (a navbox, sidebar, or table with the collapsible attribute), it is hidden apart from its title bar; if not, it is fully visible.
The melting point (or, rarely, liquefaction point) of a substance is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium. The melting point of a substance depends on pressure and is usually specified at a standard pressure such as 1 atmosphere or 100 kPa.
0.5–1.2 TK, Fermi melting point of hadrons into quark–gluon plasma; 3–5 TK in proton–antiproton reactions; 3.6 TK, temperature at which matter doubles in mass (compared to its mass at 0 K) due to relativistic effects; 5.5 TK, highest man-made temperature in thermal equilibrium as of 2015 (quark–gluon plasma from LHC collisions) [12]
This definition also precisely related the Celsius scale to the Kelvin scale, which defines the SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature with symbol K. Absolute zero, the lowest temperature possible, is defined as being exactly 0 K and −273.15 °C. Until 19 May 2019, the temperature of the triple point of water was defined as exactly 273.16 ...
In 1948, the Celsius scale was recalibrated by assigning the triple point temperature of water the value of 0.01 °C exactly [35] and allowing the melting point at standard atmospheric pressure to have an empirically determined value (and the actual melting point at ambient pressure to have a fluctuating value) close to 0 °C.
