| latent heat | A latent heat is a change in the enthalpy of a system that does not correspond to a change in the temperature of the system. | 3E2 | |
| latent heat | of Fusion | Also known as the Heat of Fusion or the Enthalpy of Fusion. Enthalpy of Fusion is the amount of energy released when a substance makes the transition from the liquid phase to the solid phase. Values of the Enthalpy of Fusion are typically tabulated at the normal melting point (temperature). [kJ/kmol] | 3E13 |
| latent heat | of Sublimation | Also known as the Enthalpy of Sublimation or the Heat of Sublimation. Enthalpy of Sublimation is the amount of energy required when a substance makes the transition directly from the solid phase to the vapor phase. The Enthalpy of Sublimation is a function of temperature. [kJ/kmol] | 3E13 |
| latent heat | of Vaporization | Also known as the Enthalpy of Vaporization or the Enthalpy of Vaporization. Represents the amount of energy required to vaporize a unit mass of saturated liquid at a given temperature or pressure. [kJ/kmol] | 3E4 |
| liquid | A phase in which molecules are separated from each other by more than a few molecular diameters (a condensed phase), but the molecules are not as far apart as in a gas phase. Molecules in a liquid phase have more translational, vibrational, and rotational energies than the same type of molecules in a pure solid phase at the same temperature and thus have a higher internal energy. | 2A4 | |
