What requires more energy the latent heat vaporisation of water or the latent fusion of ice?
Xxxvivmxxx
The latent heat of vaporisation of water requires more energy.
This is because on melting, the intermolecular bonds in water are only weakened whereas on boiling, the bonds are completely broken, which requires a larger amount of energy.

Is latent heat of vaporisation fixed?
NO
What energy is required to create a phase change without changing the temperature?
It is called the latent heat of vaporisation.
What is the heat that is released when water condenses and changes to liquid form?
The latent heat of vaporisation.
What is the electrical method to determine the specific latent heat of vaporisation?
coclude the specific latent heat of vaporization
What is SI unit of latent heat of fusion?
The latent heat of fusion is defined as the heat energy required to convert a kg of a substance of liquid into solid of the same substance without a change of temperature. Q = mL where Q = Heat Energy in joules, m=mass of substance, L= Latent heat of fusion Taking units, [J] = [kg] [L] [L] = [J]/[kg] so units of latent heat of fusion are joules.kg-1
What do you call the heat energy that is released or absorbed during a change of state of water?
latent heat of fusion, or of vaporisation or enthalpy of fusion, or of vaporisation Please see the link
Is latent heat of vaporisation fixed?
NO
What energy is required to create a phase change without changing the temperature?
It is called the latent heat of vaporisation.
What is specific latent heat of vaporisation?
Is the amount of energy required to change 1kg of liquid into gas with no temperature change.
What information does the latent of fusion give?
latent heat of fusion tells us about the amount of energy that must be taken off from water at 00C to fuse it into ice at 00C . Actually this in this phase temperature remains constant and this energy is (either latent heat of fusion or latent heat of vaporization is the potential energy which is possessed by the states by their virtue.
Why is heat energy needed to melt a solid what is this heat energy called?
This energy is the enthalpy of fusion (or latent heat of fusion).
What is the name of the process in which liquid water turns into water vapour?
this process is called evaporation. it occurs when the bonds break, due to the average amount of energy, the temperature, going up enough to provide the latent heat of vaporisation. the latent heat of vaporisation is merely the name of the energy amount that it takes to break the bonds.
