And stay a solid substance? That depends on the metal. Some are better conductors of heat than others and melting points differ. Most commonly used metals such as brass, stainless steel, aluminum, copper become hot enough to burn when exposed to direct sunlight for a long period of time at ambient temps of 60 degrees F. Industry standards state that metal pipes exposed to temps of 140 degrees F and higher must be insulated to prevent fires.
Thermal conductivity for different metals:
Aluminium = 237
Lead = 35.3
Iron = 80
Copper = 401
That means that if all are at the same high temperature, touching copper will likely burn skin faster because transfers (conducts) its heat faster than lead.
Melting point temperatures are much much higher and aren't encountered in a normal environment.

if it is really hot outside then the sun absorbs the moisture in your hair and when your hair runs out of moisture it kind of shrivels up and becomes frizzy.

It might get rusty if you but it in hot water...
The heat will transfer to the spoon (if metal).
Yes, you can put hot water in a metal can, but be cautious as the metal can conduct heat and the can may become hot to the touch. Make sure the metal can is designed to handle hot liquids and is sturdy enough to withstand the heat.
Thermal conduction is the transfer of heat through a material. When a metal chair is left out in direct sunlight, it absorbs heat from the sun through thermal conduction. The metal quickly conducts the heat throughout its structure, making the entire chair hot to the touch. This is why the metal chair can become too hot to sit on when left in direct sunlight for an extended period of time.
no the sun is to hot
the sun mercury is a liquid metal at room temperature so it really depends on the metal. It would depend a lot on what metal. If the metal is mercury then the surface of Planet Earth is so hot that mercury is liquid.
When metal is left in the sun, it will absorb heat and can become very hot to the touch. Depending on the type of metal, prolonged exposure to sunlight may cause it to expand slightly due to thermal expansion. However, if the metal is painted or coated, the coating may degrade or fade over time due to sun exposure.
Black is quite a hot colour when exposed to the sun
When a metal spoon is placed in a cup of hot coffee, the heat from the coffee is transferred to the spoon through conduction. This means that the particles in the metal spoon start moving faster and colliding with each other, causing the spoon to become hot.
the sun is reflecting its rays of light on it
Because the fire is making the coat hanger hot because the fire is hot The metal coat hanger is a good conductor of heat.
Objects such as pavement, sand, metal, and rocks get hot in the sun because they absorb the sun's energy and heat up. Darker-colored objects tend to absorb more heat than light-colored objects.
The heat from the stove is transferred to the pot, causing the metal to get hot. Since the metal handle is connected to the pot, heat is also transferred to the handle through conduction, making it hot as well.
