Question

latent heat of fusion?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Latent heat is the heat per unit mass required for a phase change to occur.

The latent heat of fusion refers to the phase change between states of solid and liquid. Here, heat actually refers to the transfer of heat energy between the objects. Thus, the latent heat of fusion encompasses the process of adding heat to melt some solid.

Answer 2

Answer:

The enthalpy of fusion of a substance, also known as (latent) heat of fusion is the change in its enthalpy resulting from providing energy, typically heat, to a specific quantity of the substance to change its state from a solid to a liquid, at constant pressure.
