First of all, solder is metal alloy with a low melting point at 200 to 840 degrees Fahrenheit. A soldering iron is a tool used to metal solder to join two metal objects together. Therefore a stand for an soldering iron would just hold it. They usually have metal springs to hold the iron, obviously with a higher metaling temperature.

Why do you think it is best for a soldering iron to have a soldering stand?
Have you ever had a soldering iron roll off the table and land on your wrist, burning a hole that took over a month to heal? I did in 5th grade while building one of the Radio Shack electronics kits I had received for Christmas! Learning from that I made my own soldering stand from a small metal can and poured over a half inch of lead into the bottom from my lead soldier casting set to make sure that the weight of the soldering iron could not tilt the soldering stand!!! I was never going to run the risk of a soldering iron getting away from me again!!!!!
Tools used for soldering?
The main tools for soldering include a soldering iron, a stand for the soldering iron, and solder. You'd likely use other tools such as brushes, picks, heat sinks, solder wick, desoldering irons, etc.
What is the difference between electric soldering iron and ordinary soldering iron?
An electric soldering iron is heated by an electric resistance coil inside. Others may be heated either by a gas(like propane) flame, or by sticking them in a forge between uses.
How do you call someone who works with soldering iron?
A blacksmith:)
How do you break in a new soldering iron?
Look at the 'bit', the part that gets hot that you do the soldering with. It should have an inclined flat surface on the end. If it has not, make one by using a file. Heat the soldering iron up. At the same time get the solder out, which should be tin solder with internal flux. When the iron is hot, quickly file the surface of the bit clean and apply the solder, which should immediately 'take' to the surface. That's it.

Because it stops the metal tip from oxidising.

Why is it best for a soldering iron to have a soldering stand?
Soldering stands are important for safety. A stand prevents the tip from accidentally contacting something that could ignite or otherwise be damaged by its heat. It also helps avoid injuries by making it more difficult for someone to put their hand on the tip.
