As listed in Table 3218, substances with large bonding energies usually have high melting temperatures.

Table 3218. Bonding energies and melting temperatures of van der Waals bonding-type substances.

Bonding type

Substance
Bonding energy
Melting point (°C)
kJ/mol kcal/mol eV/Atom, Ion, or Molecule
van der Waals
Typical value 0.1-10      
Ar 7.7 1.8 0.08 -189
Cl2 31 7.4 0.32 -101

Note that page3239 describes the correlation between the bonding energies and melting temperatures of different substances.
