Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Specific latent heat is the amount of heat energy absorbed or liberated by unit mass of a substance during change of state without causing any change in temperature
Specific latent heat is given as L-Q/m, where .Q. is the amount of heat energy absorbed or liberated and .m. is mass of a substance during its change of phase at a constant temperature
The SI unit of specific latent heat is J/kg .
