Probably you want to ask what is
"specific latent heat of fusion"
(just as "density of mass" is "specific weight")
So it is
how much energy need to melt a unit of substance.
Or more strictly:
"The specific latent heat of fusion of a substance is the amount of heat required to convert unit mass of the solid into the liquid without a change in temperature."
See http://www.physchem.co.za/Heat/Latent.htm -- or you textbook -- for pictures and examples
