The answer is melting and freezing point. At the melting point the solid and liquid stage occur in equilibrium. The melting point of a material hinge on pressure and is typically quantified at standard pressure. When measured as the temperature of the opposite alteration from liquid to solid, it is denoted as the freezing point.
