Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The melting point is the temperature at which any substance melts i.e changes its state from solid to liquid.

Melting is a phase change from solid to liquid.

  • Melting point is a temperature value or number.
  • Melting is phase change from solid to liquid.
  • Melting usually occurs when temperature is added to a body.
  • The melting point of all pure samples of a compound is the same as it is an intensive property.
  • Melting is physical change of matter.
