If solid, cold metal like brass doesn't melt at room temperature like ice does, than the bass can stand much more heat then a ice cube, so it needs to be hotter to melt, so the melting point of ice is lower then brass's melting point

Answer:

Correct answer is option A (Lower than)

Explanation:

Melting point:

Melting point is the temperature at which a solid start melting.

If a solid start meting at low temperature than it is said it has low melting point and if a solid does not melt even at very high temperature than it is said that it has high melting point

At room temperature ice will melt while a brass lamp will stay solid this must mean that the melting point of water is lower than brass's melting point.
