As atomic number increases, boiling point/K increases due to there being more electrons, which create a larger strength of negative charge around the nucleus of the atom. This affects the van der waals' forces (the forces of attraction between molecules or atoms), and they become stronger. With stronger forces, it requires more energy input to change the state of the element - resulting in a higher boiling/melting point. [:

This will be because there are more electrons around the nucleus as the atomic number increases, thus creating stronger intermolecular forces.

There is not a positive correlation or linear relationship between increasing atomic number and density. Internuclear forces create spacing, or density losses. Second, elemental density is based on #atoms/volume, and Atomic Mass/volume so the this relationship is not direct.

There are about three trends that affect the melting and the boiling point. The three trends includes the strength of the inter-molecular forces, the number of carbon atoms, and the type of bond.

The boiling point increases as the atomic number of the halogens increases. This can be explained with London dispersion forces becoming more evident due to a the larger amount of polarized electrons.

What is the relationship between melting point and atomic number for group seven elements?

As the atomic number increases so does the melting point, meaning the the molecules get stronger therefor you need a higher melting point to break the molecules.

How does boiling and melting points vary as branching in a hydrocarbon chain increase?

As branching increases, the size of the molecule is more (when compared to its unbranched isomer). Hence there are more number of molecules per unit area / volume. Hence the melting point increases, as branching increases.
