In 1913 Niels Bohr proposed a new model of the atom that included quantized electron orbits: electrons still orbit the nucleus much as planets orbit around the sun, but they are only permitted to inhabit certain orbits, not to orbit at any distance.
About reports the melting point of gold is 1,064.43 degrees Celsius. The melting point of a solid is the temperature at which it becomes a liquid. Gold's boiling point is 2,807 degrees Celsius.
Heat the lead until it melts. Turn on your heat source and adjust the heat to its highest setting, if applicable. Apply the heat as directly to the lead as possible. Lead melts at a temperature of 328 degrees Celsius (621 degrees Fahrenheit), so it will take time to melt a large amount of lead. Since most lead you use will not be pure, you will have impurities ('dross') float to the top.
