Answer:
- Melting point is related to intermolecular forces of attraction because the stronger the force of bond between molecules the higher the melting point is as it requires more energy to create free molecules
- The energy required to completely separate the molecules from each other (i.e. moving from liquid to gas) is much greater than if you were just to reduce the separation between them( solid to liquid ). That is why the latent heat of vaporization is greater that the latent heat of fusion.
