Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Specific latent heat is denoted by L and it is a measure of the heat energy (Q) per mass (m) released or absorbed during a phase change. It can be defined through the formula: Q=mL and its SI unit is Joule per kilogram (J/kg).
Detailed explanation-2: -A specific latent heat (L) expresses the amount of energy in the form of heat (Q) required to completely effect a phase change of a unit of mass (m), usually 1kg, of a substance as an intensive property: Intensive properties are material characteristics and are not dependent on the size or extent of the sample.
