Given:

Lf

Required:

Unit of Lf.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lf stands for the latent heat of fusion.

Latent heat of fusion is the amount of heat energy required by a substance of 1 kg to change its state from solid to liquid without a change in the temperature of the substance.

Thus, the unit of energy is J/kg.

Here, J is the unit of energy and kg is the unit of mass of a substance.

Final Answer: The correct option is J/kg
