#1
Front (Question)

Why does the temperature of a substance not increase if it’s changing state

Back (Answer)

The energy that you are providing is being used to weaken or break bonds holding particles together rather than increasing the particles internal energy

#2
Front (Question)

What is the definition of Specific latent heat

Back (Answer)

The energy required to change 1kg of a particular substance from one state to another without changing it’s temperature

#3
Front (Question)

What are the two specific latent heats

Back (Answer)

Specific latent heat of fusion and vaporisation

#4
Front (Question)

What is the meaning of specific latent heat of Vaporisation

Back (Answer)

Energy change when a substance changes between a liquid+gas

#5
Front (Question)

What is the meaning of specific latent heat of fusion

Back (Answer)

Energy change when a substance changes between a solid+liquid

#6
Front (Question)

When a substance is being cooled what is the differebce in what specific latent heat is

Back (Answer)

It isn’t the energy required to break bondsit’s the energy released when bonds are formed

#7
