    Explanation:

    Melting is defined as the physical process where a solid state of a substance converts into its liquid state. No change of chemical composition takes place, just the physical state of water is changing.

    \text{Solid}\rightleftharpoons \text{Liquid}

    There are given carboxylic acids. The melting point of these acids increases to its second group member which is ethanoic acid due to prevalent hydrogen bonding. To break this bonding, a high amount of heat needs to be applied.

    But as we move forward, the melting point decreases sharply as an increase in the number of carbon atoms decreases the hydrogen bonding.

    Melting point of Formic Acid = 8.3^oC

    Melting point of Acetic Acid = 16.6^oC

    Melting point of Propionic Acid = -21^oC
