Transcribed Image Text:**Table 15 Heat Constants**
The table below provides important thermal properties of various substances, including their melting and boiling points, specific heat, heat of fusion, and heat of vaporization. These properties are essential for understanding the thermal characteristics of each material.
| Substance | Melting Point (°C) | Boiling Point (°C) | Specific Heat \( \text{cal/g°C or kcal/kg°C or Btu/lb°F} \) | Specific Heat \( \text{J/kg°C} \) | Heat of Fusion \( \text{cal/g or kcal/kg} \) | Heat of Fusion \( \text{J/kg} \) | Heat of Vaporization \( \text{cal/g or kcal/kg} \) | Heat of Vaporization \( \text{J/kg} \) |
