Amount of heat absorbed, when one mole of liquid changes to gas at its boiling point is called:

Correct answer: B. Heat of vaporisation

  • A. Molar heat of sublimation
  • B. Heat of vaporisation
  • C. Latent heat of fusion
  • D. Heat capacity

Explanation

The heat of vaporization is the amount of heat energy required to change one mole of a liquid into a gas at its boiling point, without any change in temperature. This process occurs at the boiling point, where the liquid is converted into vapor.
