Very interesting information, but I fail to see the relevance of the
above fact.
Could you please elaborate on this a bit further as I thought that Lead
has a melting point of 600.61 K, 327.46 °C, 621.43 °F , which seems to
be well below the surface temperature of Venus. ref.:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead
Which applies of course for many more elements and molecules.
And on the other hand many other elements such as Copper and Nickel seem
to have a much higher melting and boiling point.
So I'm missing somehow the link here and meaning of the above fact.
Kind regards,
Rob
