Solution

  • Matter exists in the form of solid, liquid and gas which is interconvertible by heating and cooling.
  • The temperature at which a solid melts to become a liquid at the atmospheric pressure is called its melting point.
  • Ice melts at zero degrees Celsius
  • The temperature at which water starts to boil is called the boiling point
  • Water starts to boil at a hundred degree Celsius

Hence, ice melts at zero degrees Celsius and water starts to boil at a hundred degree celsius.
