Gallium is a solid metal at room temperature but
melts into a liquid in your hand. The melting point of
gallium is 85.6 °F.
The SI unit for temperature is the kelvin. What is the melting point (temperature) on the Kelvin scale?
Express the temperature to one decimal place and include the appropriate units.
