Answer:

Latent heat is a form of internal or potential energy stored by evaporated or melted water. As ice melts or liquid water evaporates, the molecules change state — from a solid to a liquid, from a liquid to a gas, or from a solid directly to a gas. The energy required to melt ice or to evaporate water does not result in a change in its temperature; rather, it is stored through the phase change of the water molecules and can be subsequently released through condensation of the water vapor (through either dew or frost formation or precipitation) or refreezing of liquid water. This energy is termed latent heat since it does not result in a change in the temperature of the water molecules - thermometers cannot measure this energy.

A total of 334 J of energy are required to melt 1 g of ice at 0°C, which is called the latent heat of melting. At 0°C, liquid water has 334 J g−1more energy than ice at the same temperature. This energy is released when the liquid water subsequently freezes.
