Yes, the melting point of a substance can be influenced by atmospheric pressure. In general, an increase in pressure raises the melting point of a substance, while a decrease in pressure lowers it. This is because pressure affects the equilibrium between the solid and liquid phases.
Boiling and freezing points of a substance are affected by pressure. An increase in pressure raises the boiling point and lowers the freezing point of a substance. Melting point is not significantly affected by pressure.
Putting a substance under pressure increases its melting point because substances expand as they melt. Putting them under pressure makes it harder for them to expand, which means that they require more energy (heat) in order to transition from a solid state to a liquid state. If a substance is under pressure, decreasing the pressure will lower its melting point.
Yes, it does. It is do because with change in altitude their is change in temp. and pressure which also changes the melting point. The change in melting point could be small to large depending upon change in conditions at different altitudes.
normal melting and boiling points are those when the pressure is 1 atmosphere, Solid CO2 gets converted to gaseous state (sublimation) on decrease of pressure to 1 atmosphere

The melting point and the boiling point of a substance are physical characteristics for each substance and are unchanged at the same pressure.

Leaving aside the obvious deficiencies in the question (1.2 WHAT? What substance?)... For most substances pressure has only a tiny effect on the melting point, and enormous pressures are required to change the melting point significantly (in contrast to boiling point, where pressure has a relatively much greater effect).
Increasing pressure generally increases the melting and boiling points of a substance. This is because pressure forces molecules to be packed closer together, making it harder for them to break free from each other in the solid or liquid phase. Conversely, decreasing pressure lowers the melting and boiling points.
The temperature at which a solid, given sufficient heat, becomes a liquid. For a given substance, the melting point of its solid form is the same as the freezing point of its liquid form, and depends on such factors as the purity of the substance and the surrounding pressure. The melting point of ice at a pressure of one atmosphere is 0°C (32°F); that of iron is 1,535°C (2,795°F). See alsostate of matter.
The term "melting point" is misleading because the melting point is dependent on both the amount pressure and heat applied. At 1 atm (atmosphere), the melting point is called the "normal melting point." The amount of heat necessary to melt a substance at it's normal melting point is consistent with the substance's generally accepted melting point; like 0ºC for H2O. When the amount of pressure is changed, the amount of heat necessary to melt the substance also changes, therefore completely altering the melting point of said substance. For example, 1 atm is usually found at sea level, so the amount of heat having to be added to a substance to melt it at that altitude is equal to it's normal melting point. When attempting to melt the same substance at higher altitudes, (higher altitudes will contain more than 1 atm of pressure) the substance will not require as much heat as it did while melting at sea level. As previously mentioned, H2O converts from ice into water at 0ºC while under 1 atm of pressure (normal melting point). However, in an altitude of 10,000ft the melting point of H2O may change to something like -6ºC opposed to the generally accepted 0ºc. Tl;dr- The term "melting point" is misleading, because it leads us to believe that the melting point will always be consistent in a substance. However, in reality the "melting point" is only consistent to a given amount of pressure the substance is undergoing. *atm (atmosphere) is a unit of measurement to convey a given amount of pressure. It's usually is used to convey the amount of pressure in altitudes.
I'm guessing that the answer is hydrogen since its melting point is only a few degrees Kelvin. Second guess is Helium.
Yes, the melting point of a substance can change with altitude due to the variation in atmospheric pressure. As altitude increases, atmospheric pressure decreases, which can affect the boiling and melting points of substances. Generally, lower pressure at higher altitudes can result in lower melting points for many substances.
The normal melting point is the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid at standard atmospheric pressure (1 atm). The normal melting point is a characteristic physical property of a substance and can vary depending on the specific material.
At high pressure and an inert atmosphere.
Varies between substances. Ex The vaporization pressure and temperature of water is different from mercury.ans2. The concept you should study is the Triple Point of the material. The temperature and pressure at which the material can co-exist as liquid, solid, and gas phases.For water, this temperature is 273.16oK at 0.6117 kPa. (and has been so for 50 years, but 0oC is adequate for ordinary mortals.)For CO2 the TP is at 216.55oK at 517kPa.For mercury, TP is at 23.2oK, at 1.65x10-7 kPa.
