  2. Bismuth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bismuth

    Pressure-temperature phase diagram of bismuth. T C refers to the superconducting transition temperature. Bismuth is a brittle metal with a dark, silver-pink hue, often with an iridescent oxide tarnish showing many colors from yellow to blue. The spiral, stair-stepped structure of bismuth crystals is the result of a higher growth rate around the ...

  3. Bismuth compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bismuth_compounds

    Unlike the lighter pnictogens nitrogen, phosphorus, and arsenic, but similar to antimony, bismuth does not form a stable hydride. Bismuth hydride, bismuthine (BiH 3), is an endothermic compound that spontaneously decomposes at room temperature. It is stable only below −60 °C. [5] Bismuthides are intermetallic compounds between bismuth and ...

    the heat at which water boils vehemently (the temperature at which water begins to boil is given as an additional value in the description, as 33) 40: melting point of an alloy of one part lead, four parts tin and five parts bismuth 48: 3: melting point of an alloy of equal parts of bismuth and tin 57: 3 + 1 ⁄ 4

  5. Pnictogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pnictogen

    Phosphorus has a melting point of 44 °C and a boiling point of 280 °C. Arsenic is one of only two elements to sublimate at standard pressure; it does this at 603 °C. Antimony's melting point is 631 °C and its boiling point is 1587 °C. Bismuth's melting point is 271 °C and its boiling point is 1564 °C. [13]

  7. Melting point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Melting_point

    The melting point (or, rarely, liquefaction point) of a substance is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium. The melting point of a substance depends on pressure and is usually specified at a standard pressure such as 1 atmosphere or 100 kPa.

  8. Bismuth(III) oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bismuth(III)_oxide

    Bismuth(III) oxide is a compound of bismuth, and a common starting point for bismuth chemistry. It is found naturally as the mineral bismite (monoclinic) and sphaerobismoite (tetragonal, much more rare), but it is usually obtained as a by-product of the smelting of copper and lead ores.

  9. Lead-bismuth eutectic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead-bismuth_eutectic

    It has a melting point of 123.5 °C/254.3 °F (pure lead melts at 327 °C/621 °F, pure bismuth at 271 °C/520 °F) and a boiling point of 1,670 °C/3,038 °F. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Lead-bismuth alloys with between 30% and 75% bismuth all have melting points below 200 °C/392 °F.
