Yes, gallium is a metal that has a melting point of approximately 29.76 °C (85.57 °F). Since the boiling point of water (100 °C) is higher than the melting point of gallium, it is theoretically possible for steam to reach temperatures high enough to melt gallium. However, this would require a very specific and controlled set-up to ensure that the steam is at the correct temperature and is in direct contact with the gallium. In most practical applications, other heat sources would likely be used to melt gallium rather than relying on steam alone.
Steam itself cannot reach temperatures high enough to melt metals on its own. Steam typically has a temperature of around 100 degrees Celsius (212 degrees Fahrenheit), which is not hot enough to melt most metals. However, steam can be used in combination with other heat sources, such as a torch or furnace, to create a higher temperature that can melt certain metals.
