Hi all,
I'm wondering if molten Ga (m.p. ca. 30 oC) would dissolve other metals,much like Hg does. And if so, which metals have great, or at least appreciable, solubilities in liquid Ga. I've the feeling that alkali metals will do, probably Al, Sc, and perhaps Y, La, and Lanthanides, too. What about the classical triad Cu, Ag, Au? Also, for Ge, Sn, and Pb.
I did some searches, but found about nothing interesting. Any direct info or links would be greatly appreciated.
thank you for your attention, Angelo
