they are the same... dont know who wrote this but it can be the same such as dry ice, or different such as water. however boiling point will sometimes be higher than melting point

Why is the boiling point lower than melting point?
It is the opposite. The boiling point is greater than the melting point. for example for fresh water, the boiling point is 100 centigrade while the melting point (for ice) is zero.
What is the physical state of bromine at room temperature 21C boiling point in 59C?
The boiling point as stated is 59C, the melting point is -7C, so at 21C it is at a higher temperature than the melting point but lower than the boiling point, so hence is in a liquid state ( at 59C or higher it would be converted to gas, at -7C or lower it would solidify ).
Which is true of a melting point and a boiling point?
Melting point: at this temperature a solid become a liquid.Boiling point: at this temperature a liquid become a gas.
Why boiling point of potassium higher than its melting point?
It requires much more energy to convert the liquid potassium into a vapor than it does to convert the solid to a liquid.
What has a higher melting point iron or granite?
Granite has a higher melting point than iron.
What happens if boiling point is higher than melting point?
The boiling point is always higher than the melting point.
Why fast rate of heating gives higher melting and boiling point than the true one?
Because the temperature is higher hence make the boiling and melting point higher.
Will LiCl have a higher boiling point than water?
boiling point:1382 C Melting point: 605 C
Does iodine have a higher melting and boiling point than florine?
Yes.
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.
Why does benzene have a lower boiling point but a much higher melting point than toluene?
Benzene has a lower boiling point than toluene because it has weaker intermoleclar forces. Benzene has a higher melting point than toluene because it is more symmetrical.
Why does water have a higher melting point than oxygen?
Water has a high melting point and boiling point because of hydrogen bonds
Is a boiling point higher than a melting point?
well acuttaly a boiling point is higher because the boiling point is at 100 degrees and like so a melting point is a 0 degrees and a boiling point the particles spread out quicker but the melting point the particles are a strong bond so cannot be squahsed and are at a lower rate of temprrature/heat
Is melting point the same as its boiling point?
No. The boiling point is higher temp. than the melting point. When something is melted, it becomes liquid: when something is boiled, it begins to become vapor.
What are the boiling and melting point's of salty water?
That depends on how much salt is dissolved in the water. Generally, the boiling point will be higher than for pure water, and the melting point will be lower than for pure water.
Why is the boiling point lower than melting point?
It is the opposite. The boiling point is greater than the melting point. for example for fresh water, the boiling point is 100 centigrade while the melting point (for ice) is zero.
What is the physical state of bromine at room temperature 21C boiling point in 59C?
The boiling point as stated is 59C, the melting point is -7C, so at 21C it is at a higher temperature than the melting point but lower than the boiling point, so hence is in a liquid state ( at 59C or higher it would be converted to gas, at -7C or lower it would solidify ).
