Figure 6.7 A graph of temperature versus heat as water freezes, melts,
and vaporizes. The horizontal line between points © and O repre-
sents the latent heat of fusion, when heat is being added or removed
but the temperature is not changing. The horizontal line between
points © and O represents the latent heat of vaporization, when
heat is being added or removed but the temperature is not changing.
