- Temperature Determine which temperature is higher, 110 °C or 180 °F. Determine which temperature is lower, 36 °C or 100 °F. The melting point of gallium is 29.8 °C. If you hold a sample of gallium in your hand, will it melt? Explain your answer.arrow_forwardSome hypothetical metal has simple cubic crystal structure. If its atomic weight is 67.1 g/mol and the atomic radius in atomic radius is 0.135 nm, calculate its theoretical density in g/cm3. NA = 6.022 x 1023 atoms/mo.arrow_forwardSilver exhibits a cubic crystal structure with a lattice constant (a) value of 0.409 nm. It has an atomic weight of 107.87 g/mol and a density of 10.5 g/cm3. a. What is the crystal structure of silver? b. Determine its atomic radius in nm.
