    Boiling Point

    The temperature at which a liquid changes to a gas. For water, this is 100°C at standard atmospheric pressure.

    Heating Curve

    A graph plotting the temperature of a substance against time as it is heated. It shows different phases of the substance (solid, liquid, gas) and the energy changes involved.

    Pressure and Boiling Point

    The boiling point of a liquid can be affected by changes in pressure. Higher pressure increases the boiling point, while lower pressure decreases it.

    Impurities and Boiling Point

    Adding impurities to a liquid, like salt to water, increases its boiling point.

    Boiling

    The process where a liquid changes into a gas. This occurs when the vapor pressure of the liquid equals the surrounding atmospheric pressure.

    Latent Heat

    The amount of heat energy absorbed or released during a phase change of a substance, at a constant temperature. It's measured per unit mass and is different for different substances.

    Specific Latent Heat of Fusion

    The specific latent heat of fusion is the amount of heat energy required to melt a unit mass of a solid substance at its melting point without changing its temperature. It also represents the heat energy released during freezing.

    Specific Latent Heat of Fusion of Ice

    The amount of heat absorbed by 1 kg of ice at 0°C to convert it into water at 0°C. Conversely, 1 kg of water at 0°C releases the same amount of heat to turn into ice at 0°C.

    Melting Based on Kinetic Model

    Kinetic model describes the motion of particles within a substance. When a substance melts, the energy absorbed (latent heat) increases the kinetic energy of the molecules, allowing them to overcome the attractive forces holding them in a fixed position, thus causing them to move more freely and change into a liquid.

    Table of Specific Latent Heat of Fusion

    A table comparing the specific latent heat of fusion, in both calories/gram and Joules/kilogram, for common substances like mercury, sulfur, silver, paraffin wax, copper, and ice.
