Melting Point of Europium (Eu) [& Color, Sources, Discovery ... 2022

One of the most important (and useful) physical properties is the melting point. All atoms will 'melt' at some point, even Europium. Ok but what is the melting point of an atom of Eu?

In the case of Europium the melting point is 822°C. Now let's look at other properties and facts about Europium...
