How could measuring the melting point of a solid help decide whether it was a mixture or a compound?

Chemistry

Answer: It can't.

Explanation:

In most cases, the melting point alone will not enable you to identify a compound. Millions of solid organic compounds, and their melting points, are known. Perhaps 10,000 of these will have the same melting point as your unknown compound.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Potassium is an element, with the symbol K

Explanation:

An element is something that cannot be broken down any further, for example, calcium, its Ca.

A compound is when you bond two or more elements. Compounds can be broken down into its original elements, for example, H₂O, it contains two atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen (both hydrogen and oxygen are elements).
