What is latent heat of vapourasation and layent heat of fusion? |
|
Answer» Latent heat of fusion of a solid is the quantity of heat in joules to convert 1 kilogram of the solid to liquid without any change in temprature The Latent Heat of Fusion is define as the amount of heat required to change a unit mass from solid to liquid at a constant temperature. In general, it is the heat required to melt the substance from solid or the amount of heat to be removed from a unit substance to freeze it from liquid to solid.Latent Heat of Vapourisation is defined as the amount of heat required to change the unit mass of liquid at boiling point into vapour under constant temperature. In general, it is the heat required to vaporise a liquid or the amount of heat to be removed from gases to condense it into a liquid. |
