Title: Isotope Boiling and Melting point chart?
Post by: anubisjr on August 19, 2013, 03:56:46 AM
Is there a definitive chart that lists the boiling and melting points (in Kelvin, if possible) of all elements AND their isotopes?  If not, where can I find the information for each?

If nothing, is there a reason ?

Thank you for any help.

You could try something like the Rubber handbook, but a limitation you may hit is the instability of some elements or the lack of bulk material available.

Thank you.  I've been looking through it but haven't found what I'm seeking, at least not yet.  I appreciate your quick reply.

Just to be sure, I'm looking for something that tells me all of the below in unity.

element + isotope + atmospheric pressure + melting/boiling points (Kelvin)

Thank you again.

with very very few exceptions (namely: hydrogen / deuterium / tritium ; maybe also 3He/4He [though the difference in boiling points here already is down to some meager hundred millikelvins] ) , the boiling / melting points of the elements will be next-to-completely identical for all isotopes of a given element

hence, there wouldn't be much of a list, I would think
