Question

Define Latent heat of fusion. How much is the latent heat of fusion of ice?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The latent heat of fusion for ice is 80 calories per gram (see calorie ). This amount of heat is absorbed by each gram of ice in melting or is given up by each gram of water in freezing. The latent heat of vaporization of steam is 540 calories per gram, absorbed during vaporization or given up during condensation .

Answer 2

$\huge\mathfrak\pink{lαtєnt ~ hєαt~ σf ~fusíσn}$

Latent heat of fusion, also known as enthalpy of fusion, is the amount of energy that must be supplied to a solid substance (typically in the form of heat) in order to trigger a change in its physical state and convert it into a liquid (when the pressure of the environment is kept constant).
