Arsenic does not melt but sublimes.It's sublimation temperature is 887 K, 615 C or 1137 F. The melt of arsenic appears at heating at 20 atmospheres of pressure.

Why the melting point of arsenic is higher than boiling point?

The melting point is higher than the boiling point of Arsenic only because the melting point is when Arsenic is under pressure because otherwise it would sublimate, or turn directly from a solid to a gas, a the "boiling" point of 614 degrees Celsius and normal atmospheric pressures.

What do you call the temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid?

This is the melting point.


Is there a liquid form of arsenic?

Arsenic is a solid at room temperature but it sublimates (turns straight from a solid to a gas) so there is no way of getting liquid arsenic


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.


Melting and boiling point of arsenic?

Melting point (under pressure): 1090 K (817°C or 1503°F) Arsenic has not a true boiling point; arsenic sublimes at 887 K (614°C or 1137 °F).

What is high melting point?

The melting point of a solid is the temperature at which it changes STATE from SOLID to LIQUID. At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium. The melting point of a substance depends (usually slightly) on pressure and is usually specified at STANDARDatmospheric pressure.
