To change the phase of a body from solid to liquid or liquid to vapour heat is required.This amount of heat is proportional yo mass of body. Latent heat of fusion is this amount of heat per unit mass of the body to convert it from solid to liquid. Similar latent heat of vaporization is heat required...

To change the phase of a body from solid to liquid or liquid to vapour heat is required.This amount of heat is proportional yo mass of body. Latent heat of fusion is this amount of heat per unit mass of the body to convert it from solid to liquid. Similar latent heat of vaporization is heat required per unit mass to convert it from liquid state to vapour. Both latent heat of fusion and latent heat of vaporization are contact for a particular material.

When a material in liquid state is given energy, it changes its phase from liquid to vapor; the energy absorbed in this process is called heat of vaporization. The heat absorbed by a unit mass of a given solid at its melting point that completely converts the solid to a liquid at the same temperature:...

When a material in liquid state is given energy, it changes its phase from liquid to vapor; the energy absorbed in this process is called heat of vaporization. The heat absorbed by a unit mass of a given solid at its melting point that completely converts the solid to a liquid at the same temperature: equal to the heat of solidification is known as latent heat of fusion.
