Phase Changes, Heats of Fusion and Vaporization, and Phase Diagrams

Guided Notes

3 key concepts

  • 1

    Melting and freezing are phase changes between solids and liquids, while boiling and condensing are phase changes between liquids and gases.

  • 2

    The heat of fusion is the energy exchanged during melting, and the heat of vaporization is the energy exchanged during boiling.

  • 3

    Phase diagrams show what phase a substance will be in at a particular temperature and pressure, and lines on the diagram represent equilibrium between two phases.
