Question

define the latent heat of vaporization​

Answer 1

Answer:

When a substance changes phase, the arrangement of its molecules changes, but its temperature does not change. ... Latent heat of vaporization is a physical property of a substance. It is defined as the heat required to change one mole of liquid at its boiling point under standard atmospheric pressure.

Answer 2

Answer:

When a substance changes phase, the arrangement of its molecules changes, but its temperature does not change. If the new arrangement has a higher amount of thermal energy, then the substance absorbs thermal energy from its environment in order to make the phase change. If the new arrangement has a lower amount of thermal energy, the substance releases thermal energy to its environment...
