What is Enthalpy of fusion?
'''Enthalpy of fusion''' is the measure of the [[energy]] needed to change a [[substance]] from a [[solid]] to a [[liquid]]. Extra energy is needed, more than what is obvious by the [[temperature]] scale. For example, ice at 0°C needs to absorb heat before it converts (changes) to water at 0°C. The temperature does not change, but energy is absorbed to change from solid to liquid. == Related pages == * [[Enthalpy of vaporization]] {{physics-stub}} {{States of matter}} [[Category:Physics]]
