Q1: The quantity of heat required to evaporate 1 kg of a saturated liquid is calledA specific heat
B 1 Kcal
C sensible heat
D latent heat
ANS:D - latent heat The quantity of heat required to evaporate 1 kg of a saturated liquid is called the "latent heat" or "heat of vaporization." This term refers to the amount of heat energy absorbed by a substance during the phase transition from liquid to vapor at constant temperature and pressure. So, the correct option is: latent heat Latent heat is the amount of heat energy absorbed or released by a substance during a phase change, such as melting, freezing, vaporization, or condensation, without a change in temperature. It represents the energy required to overcome the intermolecular forces holding the particles together in a particular phase or to break these forces when transitioning between phases. There are two main types of latent heat:
