Specific latent heat definition

Amount of energy needed to change state of 1 kg without temp change

Specific latent heat of fusion

Energy needed to melt or freeze

Specific latent heat of vaporisation

Energy needed to boil or condense

Formula for energy in state change

E=mLE = mL

EE in E=mLE = mL

Energy for a change of state (J)

mm in E=mLE = mL

Mass (kg)

LL in E=mLE = mL

Specific latent heat (J/kg)

Unit of EE in state change formula

Joules (J)

Unit of mm in state change formula

Kilograms (kg)

Unit of LL in state change formula

Joules per kilogram (J/kg)

Condition needed before state change

Substance must be at the right temperature

Temperature during state change

No change in temperature
