Oh ok. So when I say that Na2O is more thermal stable than MgO, I cannot use that to determine its melting point? Oh and is it that melting is a physics change while decomposition is a chemical change?

Exactly. There is no connection between meting point and decomposition point. When a substance decomposes it is no longer the same substance it was before it decomposed. It is now a different substance.
