Is energy released when a solid changes to a liquid?

The latent heat of fusion


What is latent heat of sublimation?

When a substance is below the triple point, the equilibrium will be between solid and vapor rather than solid/liquid or liquid/vapor. Sublimation is the direct change from solid to vapor without any intermediate phase change. The latent heat of sublimation is the energy required to change a given quantity of solid into the vapor at equilibrium. It is analogous to (but not the same as) latent heat of melting (energy required to melt the solid to liquid) and latent heat of vaporization (energy required to change a liquid into a gas).

How does liquid turn into solid?

To turn from a solid to a liquid it must reach it's melting point by heating up. Examples: ice to water, rocks to magma. Every thing melts at a different temperature.


If 30.86g of H2O is frozen (from liquid to solid) how much heat energy is required?

No heat (energy) is required to freeze water (from liquid to solid). Freezing RELEASES energy (heat), as it is an exothermic event. If you want to know how much energy is release, you need to know the heat of fusion for water, and then multiply that by the mass of water being frozen.

Is liquid to solid exothermic?

No. Going from solid to liquid at constant temperature is an endothermic process. The required amount of energy is called "heat of fusion" of the material that changes state.

How do liquid turn into solid?

A material in solid phase changes to its liquid phase by absorbing energy. The intermolecular(inter-particular) bonds are broken as the temperature increases until enough bonds are broken that the rigid shape of the solid can no longer be maintained.*The energy required to turn a solid into a liquid, of the same temperature, is called the latent heat of fusion.


Energy required to melt a solid into a liquid?

Energy is given off when cooling from a liquid to a solid. How much depends on the elements involved and the amount.

What is the name given to heat energy at melting point?

The heat energy required to change a substance between solid & liquid at constant temperature is called the "latent heat of fusion". If the change is from solid to liquid the substance gains this energy. If the change is from liquid to solid the substance gives up this energy. The exact amount of latent heat of fusion is different for different substances.
