  1. Melting point: The temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid state by absorbing heat at a constant temperature is called the melting point.
  2. For example, the melting point of pure ice is 0°C
  3. Freezing point: The temperature at which a solid changes into liquid by releasing heat at a constant temperature is called the freezing point.
  4. For example, the freezing point of pure water is 0°C

Hence the right answer is: The melting point of pure ice and the freezing point of pure water are both 0°C.
