What are sensible heat, latent heat, and specific heat of water?..

Answer / karthick

sensible heat--it is the heat needed to raise the
temperature of a substance(consider water)upto boiling
point.here pressure remains constant may be in atm
pressre.after that further increase in heat doesnot change
the temperature

latent heat--it is the heat needed to change the phase of
the substance.during this heat addition the temp remains
constant

specific heat--it is the heat required to raise the temp of
a unit mass of a substance through one degree centigrade
