  2. Latent heat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latent_heat

    Black next showed that a water temperature of 176 °F was needed to melt an equal mass of ice until it was all 32 °F. So now 176 – 32 = 144 “degrees of heat” seemed to be needed to melt the ice. The modern value for the heat of fusion of ice would be 143 “degrees of heat” on the same scale (79.5 “degrees of heat Celsius”). [18] [15]

  3. Clausius–Clapeyron relation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clausius–Clapeyron_relation

    Substituting into the Clapeyron equation =, we can obtain the Clausius–Clapeyron equation [8]: 509 = for low temperatures and pressures, [8]: 509 where is the specific latent heat of the substance. Instead of the specific, corresponding molar values (i.e. L {\displaystyle L} in kJ/mol and R = 8.31 J/(mol⋅K)) may also be used.

  4. Enthalpy of vaporization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy_of_vaporization

    Temperature-dependency of the heats of vaporization for water, methanol, benzene, and acetone. In thermodynamics, the enthalpy of vaporization (symbol ∆H vap), also known as the (latent) heat of vaporization or heat of evaporation, is the amount of energy that must be added to a liquid substance to transform a quantity of that substance into a gas.

  5. Enthalpy of fusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enthalpy_of_fusion

    However, heating 0 °C ice to 20 °C requires additional energy to melt the ice. We can treat these two processes independently and using the specific heat capacity of water to be 4.18 J/(g⋅K); thus, to heat 1 kg of ice from 273.15 K to water at 293.15 K (0 °C to 20 °C) requires:

  6. Stefan number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stefan_number

    The Stefan number [1] (St or Ste) is defined as the ratio of sensible heat to latent heat.It is given by the formula =, where c p is the specific heat, . c p is the specific heat of solid phase in the freezing process while c p is the specific heat of liquid phase in the melting process.

  7. Properties of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Properties_of_water

    The specific enthalpy of fusion (more commonly known as latent heat) of water is 333.55 kJ/kg at 0 °C: the same amount of energy is required to melt ice as to warm ice from −160 °C up to its melting point or to heat the same amount of water by about 80 °C. Of common substances, only that of ammonia is higher.

  8. Lapse rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lapse_rate

    Water vapor contains latent heat of vaporization. As a parcel of air rises and cools, it eventually becomes saturated ; that is, the vapor pressure of water in equilibrium with liquid water has decreased (as temperature has decreased) to the point where it is equal to the actual vapor pressure of water.

  9. Trouton's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trouton's_rule

    The entropy of vaporization of XeF 6 at its boiling point has the extraordinarily high value of 136.9 J/(K·mol). [4] The characteristic of those liquids to which Trouton’s rule cannot be applied is their special interaction between molecules, such as hydrogen bonding. The entropy of vaporization of water and ethanol shows positive deviance ...
