Why gallium and Cesium melt in our palms ?

Answers

Answered by mukeshsingh91

A chip of gallium or caesium melts on our palm because the melting point of these metals is just below thirty degrees Celsius (86oF). They have very low melting point. (b) Magnesium reacts with hot water and starts floating due to the bubbles of hydrogen gas sticking to its surface.

Answered by Theforgottenone

Answer:

The melting point of gallium and Caesium is lesser than the average human body temperature.

Explanation:

The melting point of gallium is 29.76 C, while the melting point of caesium is 28.44 C. The average human body temperature is 37 C. The melting point of the above metals is lesser than the human body temperature and hence it melts from the heat our body emits.

Hope you find this answer helpful
