Latent Heat
Latent Heat Of Vaporisation:
The latent heat of vaporisation of a substance is defined as the quantity of heat gained by 1 kg of the substance in changing from liquid to vapour state or from vapour to liquid state at constant temperature.
When you heat a liquid, its molecules start moving faster and gain kinetic energy. This shows as a rise in its temperature. At the boiling point, however, the heat supplied is used by the molecules to break away from the inter-molecular force and change into vapour molecules, rather than to move faster.This is why there is no change in the temperature. The heat required to help the molecules of liquid to overcome the inter-molecular forces and to escape as a vapour molecules is known as the latent heat of vaporisation.
Latent Heat Of Fusion:
The latent heat of fusion is defined as the quantity of heat gained by 1 kg of substance in changing from the solid to liquid at same temperature.
When a solid is heated, its molecules start vibrating faster and its temperature rises until it reaches the melting point. Then the temperature remains constant until the entire solid changes to liquid. The heat supplied during the process is used by the molecules to overcome the inter-molecular force, and not to raise the temperature.This heat is called the latent heat of fusion. It is gained by the solid molecules to change to liquid molecules at constant temperature.
In the reverse process, liquid molecules lose the latent heat of fusion to change to solid molecules at the freezing point. During this process too the temperature remains constant.

Students / Parents Reviews [10]
Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.

8thOne of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.

10thA marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.

7thIt has a great methodology. Students here can get analysis to their test quickly.We can learn easily through PPTs and the testing methods are good. We know that where we have to practice

10thAbhyas is a complete education Institute. Here extreme care is taken by teacher with the help of regular exam. Extra classes also conducted by the institute, if the student is weak.
Om Umang
10thAbhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
