Answer:
Specific heat capacity is defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 kilogram of a substance by 1 kelvin (SI unit of specific heat capacity J kg−1 K−1)
Latent heat, energy absorbed or released by a substance during a change in its physical state (phase) that occurs without changing its temperature. ... The latent heat is normally expressed as the amount of heat (in units of joules or calories) per mole or unit mass of the substance undergoing a change of state.
hope it helps you.
