← ScienceWhich mechanism limits heat absorption during ice melting?
A)Latent heat of fusion inhibits enthalpy✓
B)Increased conductivity accelerates heat distribution
C)Higher surface tension decreases heat transfer
D)Increased albedo reflects radiant energy
💡 Explanation
Ice melting requires energy input without temperature change; therefore, latent heat of fusion absorbs energy to break bonds rather than increasing kinetic energy as a consequence, rather than via conduction or reflection at the surface.
