Menthol has local anesthetic and counterirritant qualities, and it is widely used to relieve minor throat irritation. Menthol has been demonstrated to cause a subjective nasal decongestant effect without any objective decongestant action, and administration of menthol via a nasal inhaler in humans has also been shown to cause nasal congestion ...
The Gmelin rare earths handbook lists 1522 °C and 1550 °C as two melting points given in the literature, the most recent reference [Handbook on the chemistry and physics of rare earths, vol.12 (1989)] is given with 1529 °C.
A smaller, similar reaction occurs when you try to put out a kitchen grease fire with water. The water hits the hot grease and quickly expands into a huge flame -- i.e., not what you were going for.
The melting point (or, rarely, liquefaction point) of a substance is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium. The melting point of a substance depends on pressure and is usually specified at a standard pressure such as 1 atmosphere or 100 kPa.
This Wikipedia page provides a comprehensive list of boiling and freezing points for various solvents.
Menthone is a liquid under standard conditions, and has a density of 0.895 g/cm 3. [citation needed] Under the same conditions, [verification needed] the melting point is −6 °C, and its boiling point is 207 °C.
