  1. Bones contain a lot of calcium phosphate, which implies that they will mostly sublime at high temperature, or melt under pressure at perhaps 1500° C or so.  Often bone fragments remain even after cremation because their melting point is so high; crematoria put the fragments into a grinder that smashes them into powder to be combined with the rest of the ashes.


  2. I think it is about -273 kelvin

  3. Bone is biologic in origin,and wont melt. at high temperatures it would

    decompose(burn) ,the result would be ash.
