Question

The heat of fusion for water is the amount of energy needed for water to?

Answer 1

Answer : (C) The heat of fusion for water is the amount of energy needed for water to melt.

Explanation :

Heat of fusion : It is calculate the amount of energy required for melting of a substance to change its states from solid to liquid at constant pressure.

Fusion is a process in which phase changes from solid to liquid.

In case of water, the solid ice converted into liquid water by the process of melting.

The reaction of phase changes in water is,

$Ice(s)\overset{Fusion}{\rightarrow} Water(l)$

Answer 2

The heat of fusion for water is the amount of energy needed for water to C. melt. The melting point of water is the temperature at which it changes from solid ice into liquid water.
