Final answer:
The melting point of water is 0°C, the same temperature as the freezing point, where both the solid and liquid forms of water are in equilibrium.
Step-by-step explanation:
The freezing point and melting point of a substance are regarded as the same temperature, at which the solid and liquid forms of the substance coexist in equilibrium.
For water, this equilibrium temperature is 0°C. So, in response to the question, the melting point of water is also 0°C. This is the temperature at which ice will begin to melt, turning into liquid water, or at which water can freeze to become ice, under normal atmospheric conditions.
