Latent Heat Flashcards
1
Q
What is specific latent heat
A
the energy required for 1KG of the substance to change state at constant temperature
2
Q
What happens with energy supplied during change of state
A
energy supplied changes the energy stored NOT TEMP
3
Q
How do you calculate energy required for change in state
A
E = m*L
4
Q
what does the L represent
A
specific latent heat
5
Q
what are the two types of specific latent heat
A
fusion and vaporisation
6
Q
What is latent heat of fusion
A
liquid to solid/
7
Q
What is latent heat of vaporisation
A
liquid to gas (vapour)
