Please tell me what is Specific Latent heat?

Dear Venu,

In order to change the state of a substance (from solid to liquid or from liquid to gas) heat has to be supplied to it.  During this process temperature remains constant. The amount of heat supplied per unit mass for such a process is known as the Specific Latent Heat of that substance for that process.
