Question

what do you mean by latent heat of fusion and vapourisation

Answer 1

Aloha There !!


Answer :-


• Latent heat of fusion -


The amount of heat energy that is required to change one kg of solid into

liquid at atmospheric pressure at its melting point is known as latent heat

of fusion.


• Latent heat of vaporisation -

The amount of heat energy that is required to change 1 litre into gaseous

form at atmospheric pressure at its boiling point is known as latent heat of

vaporisation.

Answer 2

the word Latent means hidden.The amount of heat energy that is required to change 1kg of a solid into liquid at one atmospheric pressure at its melting point is known as latent heat of fusion.
The amount of heat energy that is required in the conversion of liquid to vapour at one atmospheric pressure at its boiling point is known as latent heat of vaporisation.
