There are four main processes in changing of phase, and they are
Melting
Boiling
Condensation
All the above
Latent heat is
the heat absorbed or released at a boiling process during a change of phase
the heat absorbed or released at a constant temperature during a change of phase
the heat absorbed or released at a constant temperature during a change of phase of 1 kg object
the heat absorbed or released by an object to increase or decrease its temperature by 1 degree Celcius
The heat absorbed by melting a solid is known as
latent heat of fusion
latent heat of solid
latent heat of liquid
latent heat of vaporisation
specific latent heat of vaporisation is
the amount of heat required to change 1 kg of the substance from the solid to liquid phase without change in temperature
the amount of heat required to change 1 kg of the substance from the liquid to gaseous phase without change in temperature
the amount of heat required to change the temperature 1 kg of the substance by 1 degree Celcius
the symbol for specific latent heat is
c
L
Q
m
What is the formula to calculate specific latent heat of vaporisation?
L = Q/m
c = Q/(mΔƟ)
Q = mcΔƟ
Q = mL
