Answer:
Explanation:
During the process of melting, the solid and liquid phases of a pure substance are in equilibrium with each other.
The amount of heat required to convert one unit amount of substance from the solid phase to the liquid phase — leaving the temperature of the system unaltered — is known as the latent heat of fusion.
It is also equal to the enthalpy difference between the solid and liquid phases, ΔHSL.
