Question

Which of these quantities determines the amount of heat required to melt a given amount of a substance?



specific heat capacity


thermal energy


latent heat of fusion


latent heat of vaporization

Answer 1

I would go with latent heat of fusion !

Answer 2

Latent heat is energy released or absorbed, by a body or a thermodynamic system, during a constant-temperature process. An example is a state of matter change, meaning a phase transition, such as ice melting or water boiling

Answer 3

Thanks

Answer 4

Specific heat capacity is the heat required to increase the temperature of 1kg by 1 celcius .
Thermal energy is the heat
latent heat of vaporization is the enthalpy change required to transform a given quantity of a substance from a liquid into a gas at a given pressure
