Does matter change from solid to liquid at freezing point or at melting point?

Matter changes from solid to liquid at its melting point, because this change is called melting. Freezing point is about the same as melting point, but it can be slightly lower, so melting point should always be used.

What is the name of the change from liquid to solid or the reverse of melting?
a liquid to a solid is called the melting point:-)
Does melting occur when a substance changes from a liquid to a solid?
This change in the state of matter (liquid to solid) is called freezing, not melting; it is a physical change, the chemical nature of the molecules is not changed.
How are freezing point and melting point alike?
They are the same temperature except for a small matter of semantics. Freezing point is when a liquid becomes a solid Melting point is when a solid becomes a liquid.
What is the changing of matter from a solid state to a liquid state called?
Melting is the change from solid to liquid.
Structure and properties of matter?
solid, liquid, and gases

What are the change of matter?
The melting phase changes are Solid~Liquid~Gas and the freezing phase changes are Gas~Liquid~Solid
What is the temperature at which matter changes from a liquid to a solid?
the freezing point or melting point, depending on the direction of change.
How are freezing point and melting point alike?

The change in a state of matter from a solid to a liquid?
This type of change is called condensation or liquefaction.
What is the changing of matter from a solid state to a liquid state called?
Melting is the change from solid to liquid.
A change of occurs during both freezing and melting?
A change in temperature occurs during both freezing and melting. Freezing and melting are physical changes since the chemical contents of the matter do not change.
When a substance changes from a solid to a liquid what occurs?
This change in the state of matter (liquid to solid) is called freezing; it is a physical change, the chemical nature of the molecules is not changed.
What does melting point and freezing point mean?
There are three states of matter: gas, liquid and solid. The melting point is where a solid turns to liquid. The freezing point is where a liquid turns to solid.
What are 2 ways that matter can change?
freezing and melting
What are the scientific changes in state?
Melting, Freezing, Deposition, Sublimation, Evaporation, Condensation. These are the six changes of state in science. :D By: Lola251999jbse
