I suppose this is being asked all the time but I'm quite in a hurry and couldn't
find a proper answer on the net, so here I am with this problem: I just ordered
a new battery from Subtel for my Siemens Gigaset 100, the directions of which

So as to appear mildy intelligent (!) I have done some googling of the

The size contraints are about the size of 12 AA size batteries

I am not a chemist and I hope this question is appropriate for this
group.
Does anyone know of a table of different molten salts indicating their
melting and boiling points?
