#heat_energy__heat a form of energy that is transferred by a difference in temperature
supertype: energy (physics) the capacity of a physical system to do work; the units of energy are joules or ergs; "energy can take a wide variety of forms"
subtype: heat_of_dissociation the heat required for a fluid substance to break up into simpler constituents
subtype: heat_of_formation the heat evolved or absorbed during the formation of one mole of a substance from its component elements
subtype: heat_of_solution the heat evolved or absorbed when one mole of a substance is dissolved in a large volume of a solvent
subtype: latent_heat__heat_of_transformation heat absorbed or radiated during a change of phase at a constant temperature and pressure
subtype: heat_of_condensation heat liberated by a unit mass of gas at its boiling point as it condenses into a liquid; "the heat of condensation is equal to the heat of vaporization"
subtype: heat_of_fusion heat absorbed by a unit mass of a solid at its melting point in order to convert the solid into a liquid at the same temperature; "the heat of fusion is equal to the heat of solidification"
subtype: heat_of_solidification heat liberated by a unit mass of liquid at its freezing point when it solidifies
subtype: heat_of_sublimation heat absorbed by a unit mass of material when it changes from a solid to a gaseous state
subtype: heat_of_vaporization__heat_of_vaporisation heat absorbed by a unit mass of a material at its boiling point in order to convert the material into a gas at the same temperature
subtype: specific_heat the heat required to raise the temperature of one gram of a substance one degree centigrade
