(A) The latent heat of fusion is the heat required to change a substance from a solid state to a liquid state at its melting point.
The latent heat of vaporization is the heat required to change a substance from a liquid state to a gaseous state at its boiling point.
However,the direct conversion from solid to gas is called sublimation. In the context of standard latent heat definitions provided in the options:
$(a)$ Required heat to convert solid into gaseous is associated with the process of vaporization (often involving sublimation energy,but here matched to the provided options).
$(b)$ Required heat to convert solid into liquid is defined as the Latent heat of fusion.
Therefore,the correct matching is $(a-ii), (b-i)$.

Two different liquids of the same mass are kept in two identical vessels, which are placed in a freezer that extracts heat from them at the same rate, causing each liquid to transform into a solid. The schematic figure below shows the temperature $T$ versus time $t$ plot for the two materials. We denote the specific heat in the liquid states as $C_{L 1}$ and $C_{L 2}$ for materials $1$ and $2$, respectively, and the latent heats of fusion as $L_1$ and $L_2$, respectively. Choose the correct option.
