Fórmula

Heat of Fusion

The heat of fusion is the energy absorbed during melting at constant temperature.

Formula

Q = m * L_f

where L_f is the specific latent heat of fusion. For water/ice, L_f = 334,000 J/kg = 334 kJ/kg.

Ejemplo Resuelto

Melting 1 kg of ice at 0°C.

  1. 01Q = m * Lf
  2. 02Q = 1 * 334000
  3. 03Q = 334,000 J = 334 kJ

Preguntas Frecuentes

Does temperature change during melting?

No. During a phase change, all added energy goes into breaking intermolecular bonds, not raising temperature.

What is the heat of fusion for water?

334 kJ/kg (334,000 J/kg or about 80 cal/g). This is why ice is so effective at cooling drinks.

Is freezing the reverse of melting?

Yes. The same amount of energy released during freezing equals the energy absorbed during melting.
