The quantity of heat needed to change unit mass of a substance from liquid to vapour without changing the temperature, is called
Options:
- specific heat
- specific latent heat
- thermal capacity
- heat energy
- specific heat
- specific latent heat
- thermal capacity
- heat energy
Correct Answer: specific latent heat
Explanation:
Specific heat is the heat needed to raise the temperature of an object. Latent heat is the heat absorbed or released to convert one kg of any object from one state to another.
