Question

Define latent heat of fusion of a solid . How much is the latent heat of fission of ice?

Answer 1

The amount of heat energy that is required to change 1 kilogram of a solid into liquid at atmospheric pressure at its melting point is known as latent heat of solid.latent heat of fusion of ice is 3.34 into 10 to the power 5 joules

Answer 2

Answer: The amount of heat required to change 1 g of a substance at the temperature of its melting point from the solid to the liquid state without changing temperature.

Explanation:While ice melts, it remains at 0 °C (32 °F), and the liquid water that is formed with the latent heat of fusion is also at 0 °C. The heat of fusion for water at 0 °C is approximately 334 joules (79.7 calories) per gram, and the heat of vaporization at 100 °C is about 2,230 joules (533 calories) per gram.
