Conductivity - the ability to conduct something, typically in chemistry Heat or Electricity
melting point- the temp at which a solid melts and becomes a liquid 0c or 32f for water from ice to water anyway.

Electrical conductivity, a measure of a material's ability to conduct an electric current
Thermal conductivity, the intensive property of a material that indicates its ability to conduct heat
Rayleigh conductivity, describing the behavior of apertures concerning the flow of a liquid or gas
Melting point
The melting point of a crystalline solid is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. When considered as the temperature of the reverse change from liquid to solid, it is referred to as the freezing point.
For most substances, melting and freezing points are equal

1)con..= a substances ability to carry and relay a charge or current, liquids and metals are most conductive because they have a tight molucular latice.
2)M.P..= the point at which a solid becomes a liquid.
