Iron Boiled At \(T_{boom\,p}\)

For Iron \(Fe\), \(Z=26\), molar mass of \(0.055845\,kgmol^{-1}\), density of \(7874\,kgm^{-3}\)

\(v_{boom}=3.4354*\cfrac{7874}{26}=1040.40\,ms^{-1}\)

\(T_{boom\,p}=\cfrac{1040.40^2*0.055845}{2*8.3144}=3635.16\,K\)  or \(3362.01\,^oC\)

Iron has a melting point of  \(1811\,K\) and a boiling point of \(3134 K\)

And the most nuclear \(T_{boom\,p}\) bring iron beyond its boiling point.
