It has to do with intermolecular forces. H2O has an oxygen with two hydrogens coming off of it. This forms two hydrogen bonds, which are much stronger than the London Dispersion Forces in CCl4. (Since CCl4 is non-polar, there are no Dipole-Dipole forces).

Why does Fe have a higher melting point than CCl4?
since acetyl ferrocene is attached to an acetyl group, the upper ring is asymmetrical. unlike ferrocene, whose rings are symmetrical (no attached groups) the melting point is higher due to symmetry. aka higher symmetry = higher melting point
What has a higher melting point iron or granite?
Granite has a higher melting point than iron.
Is boiling point higher than melting point?
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
Is the melting point of sodium higher or lower than rubidium?
Sodium has a melting point of 97.72 oC and rubidium has a melting point of 39.48 oC.
Is there a metal with a higher melting point than gold?
Tungsten. It has high melting point than gold because it is used in lightbulb.
Does H2O have a higher melting point than CCl4?
Yes. Water melts at 0 ºC. Tetrachloromethane (Carbon tetrachloride) has a melting point of -22 ºC

What happens if boiling point is higher than melting point?
The boiling point is always higher than the melting point.
What has a higher melting point iron or granite?
Granite has a higher melting point than iron.
Is the melting point of Xenon higher than the melting point of Helium?
Yes
Higher melting point than expected?
It is indeed possible for a substance to have a higher melting point than expected. This normally happens when the substance is impure.
Is the melting point of bromine higher or lower than the melting point of chlorine?
The melting point of bromine is -7,2 0C. The melting point of chlorine is -101,5 0C.

Does baking soda have a higher melting point than ethanol?
Yes it does, its melting point is 179 degrees Celsius
Is the temperature of the inner core higher or lower than its melting point?
higher
