- Atemperature
- Bvolume
- Cpressure
- Dtemperature, volume and pressure
Explanation
Latent heat is the heat absorbed or released during a phase change with no change in temperature — e.g. ice melting at 0 °C. The volume does change during the transition, and although pressure is also held constant, temperature is the defining constant in the standard definition. Hence the keyed answer is temperature.
