<p>what i find really interesting is the relatively slow heat transfer from the graphite crucible to the magnesium. the crucible was glowing white hot, magnesium has a melting point of only 650°C, and yet it&#39;s barely melted</p><p>even their specific heat capacity is very close. i dunno why it&#39;s like this</p>
