Latent Heat Solution

Follow our step by step solution on how to calculate Latent Heat?

FIRST Step Consider the formula

LH = \frac{Q}{m}

Next Step Substitute values of Variables

∴

LH = \frac{570J}{35.45kg}

Next Step Prepare to Evaluate

∴

LH = \frac{570}{35.45}

Next Step Evaluate

∴

LH = 16.0789844851904J

LAST Step Rounding Answer

∴

LH = 16.079J

Formulas to find Latent Heat

Heat

Heat is the form of energy that is transferred between systems or objects with different temperatures (flowing from the high-temperature system to the low-temperature system).

Symbol: Q

Measurement: EnergyUnit: J

Note: Value can be positive or negative.

Formulas to find Heat

Mass

Mass is the quantity of matter in a body regardless of its volume or of any forces acting on it.

Symbol: m

Measurement: WeightUnit: kg

Note: Value should be greater than 0.
