EzraBoth freezing and melting involve a change in the state of matter from solid to liquid or liquid to solid, respectively. The temperature at which freezing and melting occur is the same for a given substance, known as the freezing/melting point. During both processes, energy in the form of heat is either released (freezing) or absorbed (melting).
