The water has already reached the 212 degree boiling point. At 212 degrees the water can exist as either a liquid or a vapor. Absorbing the latent heat pushes liquid to the vapor state without any change in temperature.

What is the heat that is released when water condenses and changes to liquid form?
The latent heat of vaporisation.
What is heat called that is stored in the atmosphere as a result of evaporation?
the answer is latent Latent heat is correct, but specifically the latent heat of evaporation of (whatever is evaporated, in this case water) water. When the evaporated water condenses, it releases this latent heat as it precipitates, which is why it tends to feel warmer during rainstorms (unless the water is running down your neck in which case it feels horrible).
What materials have high latent heat capacity?
water
How does specific latent heat of water vary with temperature?
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.
How do solids and liquids change state?
they change their state by absorbing heat known as latent heat. There is no temperature change in a substance she they change their state because the heat is used to break the intermolecular bonds between the molecule.
When water at 212 degrees boils it is only absorbing latent heat True or false?
True
When water at 212 F boils it is only absorbing latent heat.?
The water has already reached the 212 degree boiling point. At 212 degrees the water can exist as either a liquid or a vapor. Absorbing the latent heat pushes liquid to the vapor state without any change in temperature.
When water at 212 degrees F boils is it is only absorb latent heat?
The water has already reached the 212 degree boiling point. At 212 degrees the water can exist as either a liquid or a vapor. Absorbing the latent heat pushes liquid to the vapor state without any change in temperature.
When liquid water freezes is it releasing or absorbing heat from the surroundings?
The latent heat of fusion for water is 330 Joules/gram
Why do you feel cool under a tree but no so under a tin shed on a sunny day?
The leaves give out water which vapourises absorbing some heat as latent heat
How can the temperature of a substance remain the same even if the substance is absorbing thermal enerrgy?
This is because of latent heat. Thermal energy is stored in object in form of latent heat.
Is energy transferred when water boils?
Yes, as water boils the temperature of the boiling water no longer rises. The energy from the heat source that is boiling the water is however STILL there. What happens is that this energy is taken away by the water vapor leaving the boiling water surface. This energy is called "LATENT HEAT". The latent heat is given up again when the water vapor condenses back to liquid water so the water vapor caries the heat from one place to another. It is this energy that powers Hurricanes.
Why temperature does not rise even if water is heated as its boiling point?
In this first heat boil the water at its boiling point that is 100 degree Celsius, when the temperature is reached then heat supplied to water not boils the water it is used to change the state of the matter means heat is used to overcome the forces of attraction to change its state and the heat is latent heat of vaporisation.so this is latent heat (hidden heat) which not increase the temperature for some time.
What is the molar heat of fusion of water?
The specific latent heat of fusion of water is 334 kJ/kg. Ice melts at 0 degrees Celsius and boils at 100 degrees Celsius.
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.
What is the heat that is released when water condenses and changes to liquid form?
The latent heat of vaporisation.
What is latent heat of fusion of 1kg water?
The latent heat of fusion of 1kg water is 334 kJ/kg. (Wikipedia)
