Difference between Latent heat and Melting point

Latent heat vs. Melting point

Latent heat is thermal energy released or absorbed, by a body or a thermodynamic system, during a constant-temperature process — usually a first-order phase transition. The melting point (or, rarely, liquefaction point) of a substance is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid at atmospheric pressure.

Similarities between Latent heat and Melting point

Latent heat and Melting point have 12 things in common (in Unionpedia): Enthalpy, Enthalpy of fusion, Freezing, Heat capacity, Helium, Hydrogen, Lead, Melting, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Sublimation (phase transition), Water.

Enthalpy

Enthalpy is a property of a thermodynamic system.

Enthalpy of fusion

The enthalpy of fusion of a substance, also known as (latent) heat of fusion, is the change in its enthalpy resulting from providing energy, typically heat, to a specific quantity of the substance to change its state from a solid to a liquid, at constant pressure.

Freezing

Freezing, or solidification, is a phase transition in which a liquid turns into a solid when its temperature is lowered below its freezing point.

Heat capacity

Heat capacity or thermal capacity is a measurable physical quantity equal to the ratio of the heat added to (or removed from) an object to the resulting temperature change.

Sublimation (phase transition)

Sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase, without passing through the intermediate liquid phase.

Water

Water is a transparent, tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless chemical substance that is the main constituent of Earth's streams, lakes, and oceans, and the fluids of most living organisms.

Latent heat and Melting point Comparison

Latent heat has 52 relations, while Melting point has 125. As they have in common 12, the Jaccard index is 6.78% = 12 / (52 + 125).
