As water at 212 Deg F (100 Deg C) changes to steam at 212 Deg F (100 Deg C), we know that this kind of heat had been added? A. Sensible heat B. Specific heat C. Latent heat D. Radiated heat
The correct answer is C. Latent heat.
Latent heat is the heat added or removed from a substance during a phase change (such as from liquid to gas) without a change in temperature. In this case, as water changes to steam at 212°F (100°C), it absorbs latent heat.
