A substance changes from a solid to a liquid at its boiling point.

True or False?

Answer (2)

True because if it gets to its boiling point then it would start to melt then become liquid and then will harden up over time and change back to a solid in a different form

The statement that a substance changes from a solid to a liquid at its boiling point is false; it actually occurs at the melting point. The melting point refers to the temperature at which a solid turns into a liquid, while the boiling point is when a liquid turns into a gas. Therefore, these two points represent different phase changes in a substance.
