Heat is supplied to convert 1.26 kg of water at 100°C to steam at 100°C? Latent heat of vaporization of water is 2.26 x 106 J/kg.
a
What is latent heat, and how does it affect the temperature of a substance?

Given that,

Mass of water = 1.26 kg

Latent heat of vaporization of water

We need to calculate the latent heat

Using formula of latent heat

Where, Q = energy

m = mass

L = latent heat of vaporization

Put the value into the formula

The temperature changes liquid to steam.

So, The temperature will be increases.

Hence, The latent heat is and temperature increases.

  the unit of the measure =

explanation:

  the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one.

  si unit of energy = joule (j)

  si unit of temperature = kelvin (k)

  si unit of mass of material = kilogram (kg)

the property that is quantified by the energy needed per of material to raise the temperature by one is called specific heat.

the unit of specific heat is
