Solution

The correct option is C

Melting point


The melting point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes the state from solid to liquid at atmospheric pressure. At the melting point, the solid and the liquid phase exist in equilibrium. The melting point of a substance depends on pressure and is usually specified at standard pressure.
