What is latent heat?

Energy required to change the state of a substance

What is required when a change of state happens?

Energy

What happens to temperature during a change of state?

No change in temperature

Internal energy during heating changes of state

Increases

Why doesn't temperature change during a change of state?

Energy is used to break bonds between particles

Internal energy during cooling changes of state

Decreases

Why is energy released during cooling changes?

To make bonds between particles

What does latent heat change?

State only, not temperature

Examples of heating changes of state
