Question: When liquid antimony is subdivided under suitable conditions into small droplets it can be undercooled by 2 1 0 K before nucleation of the solid

When liquid antimony is subdivided under suitable conditions into small droplets it can be undercooled by 210 K before nucleation of the solid phase occurs. The melting temperature of antimony is 1166 K, the latent heat of fusion is 163 J/g, the density is 6.7 g/cm3 and the molar volume is 112 cm3/mol. Determine the solid-liquid interface energy.
