Question

Fusion takes place when

Answer 1

Fusion or melting:

1. The process of melting involves turning a solid into a liquid.
2. A pure material's melting point, commonly referred to as the melting point, is a characteristic of that substance that undergoes melting.
3. Any pure substance needs a certain amount of energy to change from a solid to a liquid.
4. A liquid is formed when solids are heated to the point at which the molecules that hold their bonds together break.
5. The process of melting often referred to as heat of fusion, results in the molecules of a substance becoming less coordinated
6. Latent heat of fusion is the quantity of energy required to transform a solid material into a liquid by inducing a change in its physical state (usually in the form of heat).

Therefore, fusion takes place when a solid turns into a liquid.
