The heat of fusion is the amount of energy required to change 1 unit mass of a solid to a liquid at constant temperature.
The heat of fusion is:Q = specific heat x mass
gamma ray photon
fusion
In nuclear fusion, you take 4 atoms of hydrogen, and fuse them into helium. The resulting atom has less mass then the 4 atoms combined. That loss of mass is what we gets as energy. How much energy you may ask? E = mc2.
1kj x 1/H fusion x g/mol solid
1kj x 1/H fusion x g/mol solid
1kj x 1/H fusion x g/mol solid
Grams solid × mol/g × Hfusion
Grams solid mol/g Hfusion
The heat of fusion is the amount of energy required to change 1 unit mass of a solid to a liquid at constant temperature.
grams liquid x mol/g x H fusion
Grams solid × mol/g × Hfusion
In nuclear fusion mass transforms into energy.
The heat of fusion is:Q = specific heat x mass
