The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to the external pressure. It is also the condensation point.
The freezing point is the temperature at which liquid and solid coexist in equilibrium. It is also the melting point.
The melting and boiling points of a substance (in this case I am assuming you are referring to a pure substance, and not a mixture), are the same. The triple point is defined by the temperature and pressure at which solid, liquid, and vapor of a substance, can coexist in equilibrium. At any pressure below the triple point, only sublimation and condensation are possible (no liquid phase is possible). Between the triple point pressure and the critical point pressure, there is a difference between the melting and boiling points, of a substance. The melting point temperature will be lower than the boiling point. At the critical point, the densities of the liquid and vapor phases, have merged, and boiling no longer occurs. At and above the critical point, you cease to get liquid and vapor, but you get what is referred to as a "supercritical fluid".
The melting point and the boiling point of a substance are physical characteristics for each substance and are unchanged at the same pressure.
please correct me if im wrong but i think everything that doesnt burn has a melting point Everything has a melting point, no matter how hard or dense. Even diamonds can melt if hot enough. Not everything has a melting point. Some things never change into liquid, they go from solid to gas. Dry Ice does this at room temperature. This process is called sublimation.
A substance's melting point is the temperature at which it changes from a solid to a liquid state. It is unique to each substance and does not necessarily match the melting point of any other substance.
Butanone boils (at StP) at 79.64 °C and melts at -86 °CBy the way: the naming of butanone (CH3COCH2CH3) is not 2-butanone, because 3-butanone is the same compound and 1-butanone does not exist: this is butanal.
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.
NO!!! Boiling point is the temperature when a liquid changes to a gas. Melting point is the temperature when a solid changes to a liquid. Remember For rising temperatures It melts then boils For falling temperatures It condenses then freezes. Melting/Freezing point is the same temperature for change of state solid/liquid Boiling/Condensing point is the same temperature for change of state liquid/gas
Boiling point is most affected by pressure. Note that freezing point and melting point are in fact the same.
The boiling point is typically higher than the melting point for a substance. The boiling point is the temperature at which a substance transitions from a liquid to a gas, while the melting point is the temperature at which a substance transitions from a solid to a liquid.

If the temperature is below the melting point, you know it is in the solid state. If the temperature is below the boiling point, and above the melting point, you know it is a liquid. If the temperature is above the boiling point, you know it is a gas, etc. (Note: melting point is the same as freezing point).
They aren't the same. The boiling point of carbon dioxide is -57 oC. (Wikipedia)
The boiling point of Yttrium is 3609 K (3336oC or 6037oF). (3336 °C, 6037 °F)
No, boiling point is not the same as melting point. Boiling point is the point at which a liquid begins to become a gas. (Water begins to become water vapor at about 212 degrees fahrenheit, or 100 celsius) Melting point is the point at which a sold begins to become a solid. (Ice begins to become water at about 32 degrees fahrenheit, or 0 degrees celsius)
No, different liquids have different boiling and melting points depending on their chemical composition. The boiling point is the temperature at which a liquid turns into a gas, while the melting point is the temperature at which a solid turns into a liquid. Each liquid has its own unique set of physical properties that determine its specific boiling and melting points.
Boiling point is the temperature at which a substance turns into a gas, while melting point is the temperature at which a substance turns into a liquid state from a solid state. The boiling point is always a higher temperature then the melting point. The melting point has a substance turn into a liquid from solid, and boiling point has a liquid turn into a gas.
Boiling point is the temperature at which a liquid is in equilibrium with the gas phase of the same liquid. Melting point is the temperature at which a solid becomes a liquid (i.e. the point at which a solid and liquid of the same substance will be in equilibrium)
