No, gold does not melt in your hand. Gold has a melting point of 1,064 degrees Celsius (1,947 degrees Fahrenheit), which is much higher than the temperature of the human body. Holding gold in your hand will not cause it to melt.
1948 degrees Fahernheit, or 1064.degrees CelsiusHi guys! pure gold melts at 1064.43 °C! that's a lot of heat
Gold will melt at 1064.18 oC, and evaporate at 2856 oC.Gold boils at 2807.0°C or 5084.6 F °and its melting point 1064.43 C° or 1947.9741 F°.For gold to evaporate , it would take EXTREME HEAT TO DO THAT, and to myknowledge, it would be impossible to do that with out a heat source of greatmagnitude........1948 degrees== ==Gold melts at the temperature of i060 degrees C1064.18 °C OR 1947.52 °F when it is heated to high temperatures.Gold melts at 1948.316 degrees Fahrenheit
Tungsten has a melting point of 3,422 degrees Celsius, making it one of the metals that won't melt under 800 degrees.
Gold does not melt from the lava of a volcano because the temperature required to melt gold (1,064 degrees Celsius) is higher than the temperature of most lava (700-1,200 degrees Celsius). Gold is not formed in volcanic eruptions but is typically found in veins within the Earth's crust.
