Specific Latent Heat Help!

Attached to the link below are 4 questions. I’ve got the answers for the first two but I’m not sure whether they’re right. Can you answer all 4 questions please with a detailed explanation.

Ok, sorry - here's a bit of help:

Specific Latent Heat is measured in J/kg which literally means J divided by kg which is Energy divided by Mass

So SLH = E / m

Use that equation for the questions and literally type it into your calculator!

okay that makes sense because i am in year 10 but did SLH in year 9 - tbf if we tried really hard and put our heads together on the last question we might crack it! - Check with other friends/classmates - I find that really helps me when i'm stuck with homework.
If all else fails - i mean... there is Google!!!

Thanks and also do you have tests for the summary. Are the tests from example?

Yes the tests are from example for the summary - i take it you mean summary test like an end of topic test. If you mean the summary you write after an experiment - you just explain what happened in your experiment and what went wrong/what should have happened etc.
