It starts low on the left, rises dramatically towards the middle and falls again on the right.
W on the periodic table. the element with the highest melting/boiling point is tungsten.
A melting point is a periodic property. Melting point is basically the amount of energy required to break chemical bonds. The more energy required, the stronger the bonds and the higher the melting point. For example, Since Ionic bonds have a transfer of electrons, it requires a lot of energy to break the bonds and has a higher melting point.
Carbon has the highest melting point of any element on the Periodic Table. It's melting point is 3823K
Helium.
Gallium
The trend of boiling points across a period in the periodic table should decrease from metals to nonmetals. The trend becomes more complicated between metals, the boiling point of metals tends to increase across a period.
in column two
Depending on the position of an element on the periodic table, one can know if it is a gas, liquid or metal. With that information, predicting the melting point is easy.
The melting point of lead is 327oC, as taken from my periodic table.
wolfram due to its extremely high melting point
Carbon (C) has the highest melting point out of all the elements, and so, as it's in the first 20 elements, it has the highest melting point of the first 20 elements too. Its melting point is 3823K.
