It can't. You can increase the melting point of a particular rock by placing it under a great deal of pressure however.

What becomes a solid above the melting point?

The melting point is the temperature which a material, element or mixture, changes from the solid to a liquid. Therefore, all liquids become solids above the melting point.


How can you determine if a substances is a solid at room temperature?

Check the melting point of the substance. If the melting point is below room temperature, then the substance is liquid and if the melting point is above room temperature then it is solid.


Is sulfur solid liquid or a gas?

a solid.....


How can you use boiling points and melting points to determine a solid liquid or gas that an element would be in at a certain temperature?

If the temperature is below the melting point then the element is a solid.If the temperature is above the melting point but below the boiling point, then the element is a liquid.If the temperature is above the boiling point, then the element is a gas.

Which metals would be solid at 1000 degrees celulus?

At 1000 degrees Celsius, several metals would remain solid, including iron, nickel, and cobalt, all of which have melting points above this temperature. For example, iron melts at approximately 1538 degrees Celsius, while nickel and cobalt have melting points of around 1455 and 1495 degrees Celsius, respectively. Additionally, metals like titanium and tungsten, which also have high melting points, would remain solid at this temperature.


The temperature at which a solid melts is called?

The temperature at which a solid melts is called the melting point. At this temperature, the solid transitions into a liquid state.


At what temperature does solid turn to liquid?

Generally speaking, solid turns to a liquid at its melting point. Ice turns to water at 0 degrees Celsius Chocolate melts at 25 degrees Celsius- Yum! Ice (solid) thaws when the temperature rises above 32 degrees Fahrenheit, becoming water (liquid). Other solids (oddly) vary.


How many phases of matter are present at the melting temperature of water?

At the melting temperature of water, there are two phases of matter present: solid and liquid. As the temperature rises above the melting point (0 degrees Celsius), the solid ice melts into liquid water.


Why is a pencil a solid at room temperature?

The "lead" in the pencil is a form of carbon called graphite. Graphite has a melting temperature of about 6606 degrees F. So, unless you can heat the graphite to that temperature, it will remain as a solid.


Do solids have a low melting point?

Some do while others do not. To be solid a substance must merely have a melting point that is above room temperature. Gallium has a melting point just above room temperature, so it is normally solid but it will melt in the palm of your hand. By contrast Tungsten has such a high melting point that not even the hottest lava from Earth's volcanoes can come close to melting it.


The temperature in which a solid melts is called its?

The temperature at which a solid melts is called its melting point.
