I am a 58 year old man and heat of fusion is the thingy your askin' I need to draw an example of the energy need it to create heat of evaporation.

Heat of evaporation is the amount of heat needed to convert an amount of liquid to a gas without actually changing its temperature. The same amount of heat is also released when a gas condenses to its liquid form while not changing its temperature.

That completely depends on what you want to change. Ice becomes liquid at 0 degrees Celsius (32 degrees Fahrenheit), for example. Quicksilver turns into liquid at

-38 degrees Celsius (-37 degrees Fahrenheit), and is frozen beneath that degree.

It is called the enthalpy of vaporization (or heat of vaporization or heat of evaporation). It is expressed as ΔHvap.
