Latent Heat is the amount of heat transfer during a phase change, like when ice melts or liquid water boils to steam. The temperature is constant during this change. The amount of heat depends on the particular substance and the mass of substance. The units of Latent Heat property are something like calories per gram, or kiloJoules/kg. So it is Energy over mass. Since energy is (force)*(length) which is (mass)*(length^2) / (time^2), dividing by mass leaves us with (Length^2) / (Time^2), or (Velocity)^2, which is interesting.

Is dimension for latent heat and gravitional pull equal?
s
How do you find dimension of latent heat?
dimensions are just the measurements of Length, width and Height so i think to measure the dimension you just measure the object and record the distance
How latent heat is an important source of atmospheric energy?
In the atmosphere latent heat is a property of water vapour. When water vapour condenses it releases latent heat, and latent heat must be supplied to evaporate liquid water. This heat affects the behaviour of the weather. Similar effects occur in the change from liquid water to ice and vice versa.
What is dimension of enthalpy?
The correct dimensional formula of latent heat is MoL2T2.
Can latent heat be zero?
No, latent heat can never be zero.Because latent heat is the hidden heat so there has to be heat more than zero.
Heat that causes a substance to change form is called?
latent heat :)
Why is latent heat important to the atmosphere?
Latent heat is an important form of atmospheric energy. Latent heat is a property of water vapor in the atmosphere and when water vapor condenses it releases latent heat. Latent heat must be supplied to evaporate liquid water and this heat affects the behavior of the weather.
Why is latent heat of vapourisation higher than latent heat of fusion?
latent heat of vapourisation is the heat energy required to change 1 kg of a liquid to gas at atmospheric pressure at its boiling point where latent heat of fusion is the amount of heat energy required to change 1 kg of solid to liquid at its melting point so that is why latent heat of vapourisation higher than latent heat of fusion.
What is the heat that is released when water condenses and changes to liquid form?
The latent heat of vaporisation.
What is laten heat?
what is latent heat
What do you call heat that is added or removed from a substance but does not change the state of the substance sensible heat latent heat super heat or radiation heat?
Latent Heat.
What is latent heat evaporation?
Latent heat of evaporation of water to steam is 2270 KJ/Kg
