That means that the substance that the heat is being added to is in transition between states. The current state that it is in is atthe highest it can be and still remain in that state, so the heat is instead of increasing the temperature of the substance by making the molecules move faster, it is breaking the intermolecular bonds that are keeping the atoms in that state so as to advance to the higher phase. I guess that the heat would then be called transition heat or something like that. I didn't know that it even had a name of its own.
Adding heat to a vapor after the change of state from liquid to vapor has occurred is called super-heating. For example, adding heat to steam at 100 C and 101.325 kPa is called super-heating.
During a phase change.
Heat of reaction.
No. Steam is warm water vapor. Heat is added or external energy that causes a rise in temperature.
Heat of reaction.
As an object is heated, the rate of increase in temperature is proportional to the rate of heat added. The proportionality is called the heat capacity. Because the heat capacity is actually a function of temperature in real materials, the total amount of energy added will be equal to the integral of the heat capacity function over the interval from the initial temperature to the final temperature. If you just assume an average heat capacity over the temperature range, then the rise in temperature will be exactly proportional to the amount of heat added.

When additional heat is added, the temperature of the solution remains constant until all the liquid has been converted into gas. This is also called the latent heat of vaporisation.
That's the heat of fusion.
Heat which causes a change in temperature of substance is called specific heat.
I think that the temperature rises when heat is being added because all of the energy has nothing else to focus on so it changes the temperature. Also, adding heat would make the temperature rise.

When an object is hot, the temperature rises as heat is added. This increase in heat is called sensible heat. Solids can become liquids and liquids can become gases but changes like this require the addition or removal of heat. The heat that causes these changes is called latent heat.
Two forms of heat are relevant in air conditioning:1. Sensible Heat2. Latent HeatSensible heatWhen an object is heated, its temperature rises as heat is added. The increase in heat is called sensible heat. Similarly, when heat is removed from an object and its temperature falls, the heat removed is also called sensible heat. Heat that causes a change in temperature in an object is called sensible heat.Latent heatAll pure substances in nature are able to change their state. Solids can become liquids (ice to water) and liquids can become gases (water to vapor) but changes such as these require the addition or removal of heat. The heat that causes these changes is called latent heat.Latent heat however, does not affect the temperature of a substance - for example, water remains at 100°C while boiling. The heat added to keep the water boiling is latent heat. Heat that causes a change of state with no change in temperature is called latent heat.Appreciating this difference is fundamental to understanding why refrigerant is used in cooling systems. It also explains why the terms 'total capacity' (sensible & latent heat) and 'sensible capacity' are used to define a unit's cooling capacity. During the cooling cycling, condensation forms within the unit due to the removal of latent heat from the air. Sensible capacity is the capacity required to lower the temperature and latent capacity is the capacity to remove the moisture from the air.
When heat is added to a system, the temperature increases, unless there is a phase change taking place. In that case, temperature remains the same, and the only observable difference is the phase change.
