how do the melting points of enantiomers compare to each other? how do the melting points of diastereomers compare to each other?

Enantiomers are alike in all respects but one. They have the same melting point, the same boiling point and the same solubility in common solvents. The difference between the two enantiomers only shows up when we put them in a chiral environment.

Melting points of enantiomers will not compare to each other as they have same M.P. and Diastereoisomers are compared on the basis of melting point.

What are steroisomers?

Stereoisomers are those isomers which are having the same molecular formula but different spatial arrangemet of atoms within the molecule.

Enantiomers: Enantiomers are pair of two stereoisomers which are having mirror image of each other, but are not superiposable. They have the same melting point so we can not compare enantiomers on the basis of their melting point.
Diastereoisomers: Diastereoisomers are pair of those stereoisomers which are not having mirror image of each other, but are superimposable.They have different physical and chemical properties, so it can be compared on the basis of melting point.

Hence, only diastereoisomers are compared on the basis of melting point.
