Energy released from changing the phase of a substance from the liquid phase to solid phase can be calculated by using the specific latent heat of fusion. The heat of fusion of water at 0 degrees Celsius is 334 J/g. Calculation are as follows: <span> Energy = 5 grams x 334 J/g </span><span>Energy = 1670 J</span>
A chemist preforms the following: Neutralizing nitric acid (HNO3) with soda ash (Na2CO3). This reaction will then create sodium nitrate and carbonic acid, which will then decompose into water (H20)
