If the solder melted sooner than the surrounding parts, the line carrying the water to the sprinkler would lose pressure, resulting in the failure of the sprinkler system to deliver water.
Melting and boiling points are important characteristics of materials: they are needed in industry and in laboratory.
modern automatic sprinklers use a glass bulb that is filled with a fluid that boils and expands at a preset temperature. the glass bulb has a small bubble in the fluid. when a fire causes the fluid to boil, it shatters the glass bulb, which is keeping the waterway seal of the sprinkler in place. When the seal is gone, water can flow through the sprinkler orfice, and extinguish the fire. older sprinkler models use a link and lever arrangement, with a link of solder that melts at a preset temperature. The link and levers of the sprinkler mechanically hold the waterway seal of the sprinkler closed. When the link melts, the mechanical seal is gone, and water can flow through the orfice.
positive ions have high melting points
Different proteins have different melting points.
Ionic compounds have a higher melting point.
Melting and boiling points are different for each compound or element.
Elements have fixed melting and boiling points, while compounds have varying melting and boiling points depending on their composition. Mixtures do not have fixed melting and boiling points, as they are composed of multiple substances which each have their own individual melting and boiling points.

1535 degree melting of iron
The melting point of francium is not measured, only supposed by comparison with the melting points of the other alkali metals.
A chord is a line which connects two points which lie on a circle.
False, all minerals DO NOT have the same melting point
