Specific Heat mans the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by a certain amount (or of course the heat it releases in cooling the same amount). It can be expressed in various units, depending which is suitable for the case being studied. Thus scientists usually use grams weight, degrees Celsius, and calories for the heat. So specific heat would be expressed as calories per gram per degree Celsius. Engineers probably prefer larger units, ie kilograms and kilocalories, or in the USA they may still use the traditional old British units, ie pounds weight and degrees Fahrenheit, and heat may be in BTU. Specific heat is relative to water, ie one calorie is the heat to raise one gram of water one degree Celsius, and one BTU similarly, one pound of water one degree Fahrenheit.
Latent heat is quite a different matter. This is the heat released in a Change of State, ie steam to water for example, or in reverse the heat required to evaporate water which is already at boiling point into water vapour. It also appears in many other substances during a change of state, for example when liquid wax solidifies, the latent heat is released. In quantity, this would be expressed as so many calories per gram, or whatever combination of units is preferred.
The specific latent heat (symbol l) is the heat absorbed or released per unit mass of a substance in the course of its isothermal change of phase. The molar latent heat is the heat absorbed or released per unit amount of substance during an isothermal change of state.
Heat of vaporization is how much energy it takes for the TRANSITION/CHANGE from liquid to turn in to a gas while specific heat is how much energy it take to change it's TEMPERATURE by 1C
the heat which is going into ice but not increasing its temperature,is the energy required to change the state of ice from solid to liquid called latent heat of fusion
Water heat of vaporization at 100 oC: 2030 kJ/kg.
Water specific heat at 15 oC: 4,187 kJ/kg.K.
coclude the specific latent heat of vaporization
the application of latent heat fo fussion is ice is used to put in drinks to make cool because ice has hih specific heat capcity
yes he was known for Latent heat, specific heat, and the discovery of carbon dioxide
None at all
Latent heat of water is the heat required to change its state at a particular temperature BECAUSE of the pressure at which the water is at at the point of fusion or evaporation.The latent heat is not affected by temperature (in fact there is no temperature change during absorption of latent heat) it is affected by the pressure acting on a substance. As the pressure increases, the latent heat (of evaporation) decreases, consequently with the change in pressure there is also a different temperature at which the evaporation takes effect, higher pressure, higher temperature at the evaporation point.

specific heat of lpg
The specific heat temperature of mercury is 14 degrees Celsius. Comparably, the specific temperature of water is 417.9 degrees and air is 101 degrees.

The unit for specific latent heat is J Kg-1(Joules per Kilogram)
yes he was known for Latent heat, specific heat, and the discovery of carbon dioxide
the heat which is absorbed by a substance for changing solid into liquid state by keeping temperature constant is called latent heat of fusion while the heat which is evolved during phase change of liquid to vapour state at constant temperature is called latent heat of vapourization
No, latent heat can never be zero.Because latent heat is the hidden heat so there has to be heat more than zero.
I think it is mass and energy
They are the same thing. Fusion and solidification both mean the changing of a liquid to a solid.
The amount of energy needed to change the "state of matter" is termed as "latent heat". This is not same for vapourisation (liquid to vapour) or for fusion (solid to liquid). For example, latent of fusion is 79.7 cal whereas latent heat for vapourisation is 541 calories. The latent depends on how closely the atoms and molecules in the matter are closely packed.
