Given this experimental data, Rutherford naturally considered a planetary-model atom, the Rutherford model of 1911 â electrons orbiting a solar nucleus â however, said planetary-model atom has a technical difficulty.
1 Goldâs melting point is at about 1,943 degrees Fahrenheit, which means you will need temperatures that hot to melt it. 2  Thus, it's very important that you don't just choose any container. 3  In addition to a crucible, you will need a pair of tongs to move the crucible and hold it.
Gold boils at 2807.0Â°C or 5084.6 F Â°and its melting point 1064.43 CÂ° or 1947.9741 FÂ°.  For gold to evaporat â¦ e, it would take EXTREME HEAT TO DO THAT, and to my  knowledge, it would be impossible to do that with out a heat source of great  magnitude........
