Answer:
The trends reflect the increasing weakness of the covalent or metallic bonds as the atoms get bigger and the bonds get longer. The low value for tin's melting point compared with lead is presumably due to tin forming a distorted 12-co-ordinated structure rather than a pure one.

Answer:Here's ur answer!!! Explanation:Lead has lower melting point than tin, as the arrangement of the metallic atom of lead are more closely packed (faced centered cubic) than tin (tetragonal structure) in solid lattice. The close packing of increase the strength of the metallic bond in lead.
