Answer

The melting point is about 26 K.

Work Step by Step

The melting point is the point at which a solid becomes a liquid, so we look at where the substance changes from solid to liquid. The normal melting point means that we consider standard conditions, where pressure is 1 atm. Looking at the table, we see that, when the pressure is 1 atm, the substance changes from solid to liquid at about 26 degrees Kelvin.
