Specific Latent Heat

The energy needed for a 1 kg mass to change in state without changing its temperature. This means the energy transferred for bonds to be broken or formed (which causes a change in state).

What does it mean if the bonds are:

  1. breaking

  2. forming

  1. Internal energy is incresing

  2. Internal energy is decreasing
