Context #1 | Verb

physical change

To vaporise means to convert a substance into vapor, often by applying heat. This process is a crucial phase in the transition of materials from liquid or solid states to a gaseous state. In everyday language, vaporisation commonly refers to the boiling of liquids. It can also describe the release of volatile substances, especially in the context of cooking or industrial applications. Vaporisation is a key concept in thermodynamics and is significant in various scientific fields.

Synonyms

boil, evaporate, fume, steam.

Examples of usage

  • The water will vaporise once it reaches the boiling point.
  • In the lab, scientists often vaporise chemicals to analyze their components.
  • He used a heat source to vaporise the sample for better observation.
  • During the cooking process, the heat caused the oil to vaporise quickly.

Etymology

The term 'vaporise' originates from the combination of 'vapor' (derived from the Latin 'vapor', meaning 'steam' or 'mist') and the suffix '-ise', which denotes a process or action. The concept of vaporisation has been known since ancient times, when early scientists and philosophers studied the properties of water and its transformation through heating. The word gained prominence during the 17th century, reflecting advancing understanding in chemistry and thermodynamics. Over time, 'vaporise' has extended beyond scientific uses and is commonly found in everyday language, especially in contexts involving cooking, physics, and even technology, such as in vaping. Today, it retains its essential meaning while being applied across various modern disciplines.
