That depends on the metal: mercury is already liquid at room temperature, gallium will melt in your hand, many alloys will melt in hot water, but other metals do have to be heated to thousands of degrees before they melt.
liquids dont melt A liquid has already melted from its solid state. I imagine the less dense the liquid is when in a solid state, the quicker it would melt to a liquid state.
That depends upon temperature and pressure. At room temperature and sea level pressures, most waxes are solid or if you melt it it turns in to a liquid but if you put it at 100 degrees it turns in to gas.
To melt helium, it requires extremely low temperatures rather than heat. Helium becomes a liquid at temperatures below -268 degrees Celsius (-450 degrees Fahrenheit) and does not require significant amounts of heat to transition from its gaseous state to a liquid state.
No. Many substances melt and boil. Most of the elements, and many substances melt and boik without decomposition.

no zinc doesnt melt until 700 degrees, gallium, mercury are two liquid metals
heat
Ice melts at 0 degrees Celsius Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius
You can't melt a liquid
you melt it...

Can you melt Vicodin
If you mean water then yes. The fact that the water is liquid water means that its temperature is higher than 0 degrees celsius, the melting point of ice.
At its melting point. For example, the melting point of ice is 0 degrees celsius, so ice (solid) will melt to become water (liquid) at this temperature.

Water ice would remain solid in liquid ammonia, because the temperature of the ammonia is well below 0 degrees Celsius, the melting point of ice. At normal atmospheric pressure, ammonia is liquid below minus 33.34 degrees C.
