What is the difference between sensible heat and latent heat?
The heat required to change the phase of a substance without the change in temperature is called latent heat. i.e. the change from 100% solid at 0 degree to 100% liquid at 0 degree.
The heat required to increase the temperature of a substance without the change in phase is called sensible heat. i.e. the change from 100% liquid at 0 degree to 100% liquid at 100 degree.
