Question
Chapter 12.6, Problem 1RC
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The highest enthalpy of fusion should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Enthalpy of fusion:
The enthalpy of fusion of a substance is the change in enthalpy of the substance when giving energy in the form of heat to the substance to change its state from a solid to a liquid, at constant pressure.
Energy absorbed as a heat of melting is called enthalpy fusion.
