Similarly one may ask, is vaporization a melting or fusion?
Heat of fusion is the energy needed for one gramof a solid to melt without any change in temperature.Heat of vaporization is the energy needed for one gram of aliquid to vaporize (boil) without a change inpressure.
Furthermore, what is the difference between fusion and vaporization? Vaporization is the process of formationof vapor from a liquid, which can happen in one ofthe two ways: evaporation and boiling. The key differencebetween fusion and vaporization is that fusion is theconversion of a solid into a liquid, whereasvaporization is the conversion of a liquid into itsvapor.
Also question is, what is vaporization and condensation?
Condensation is the process of conversion of agas into liquid and vaporization is the process ofconverting liquids into gas or vapours. Some solid substances, forexample camphor, get vaporized to gaseous state withoutpassing through the liquid state. This process is calledsublimation.
Is energy released or absorbed during condensation?
Energy will be released to change fromliquid to solid (fusion), gas to liquid (condensation), orgas to solid. Latent heat of evaporation is theenergy used to change liquid to vapor. IMPORTANT: Thetemperature does not change during this process, so heatadded goes directly into changing the state of thesubstance.
