What is the difference between melting and freezing?

I think the difference is the temperature because when something is melting the temperature is going up(increasing) or sometimes stayis the same and when something is freezing the temperature is going down(decreasing)

Ithink this is what you meant. the temperature at which a liquid begins to boil is called the boiling point. the boiling point of water is 212°f or 100°c.  and at that point will start to turn into steam (gas)
