Q4. Standard enthalpy of fusion or molar enthalpy of fusion is
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

The enthalpy change that accompanies melting of one mole of a solid substance in standard state is enthalpy of fusion.

Q5. Standard Molar Enthalpy of Formation is
Answer : Option B
Explaination / Solution:

The standard enthalpy change for the formation of one mole of a compound from its elements in their most stable states of aggregation is enthalpy of formation.
