Question

expression for latent heat of fusion is

Answer 1

The amount of heat energy released or absorbed when a solid changing to liquid at atmospheric pressure at its melting point is known as the latent heat of fusion. Ex: The latent heat of fusion of water is 79.72 cal/gram (or) 334.0 kJ/Kg.


The specific latent heat of fusion, l, of a substance is the heat needed to change a mass of 1 kg the substance from a solid at its melting point into liquid at the same temperature.
