Verb
Context #1 | Verb

state change

Vaporized refers to the process of a substance turning into vapor, typically due to the application of heat. This can occur for liquids and solids when they reach their boiling point or sublime. It is a physical change that transforms the state of matter without altering its chemical composition.

Synonyms

evaporated, gasified, sublimated.

Examples of usage

  • Water vaporized into steam when heated.
  • The solid ice vaporized quickly in the hot sun.
  • The liquid nitrogen vaporized almost instantly upon exposure to air.

Etymology

The term 'vaporize' is derived from the Latin word 'vapor', meaning 'mist, steam, or vapor', which in turn comes from the verb 'vaporare', meaning 'to exhale or emit vapor'. The use of 'vaporized' as the past tense form is more recent, emerging in English as scientific understanding of thermodynamics and states of matter developed. The concept dates back to the early days of chemistry and physics, where the transformation of substances from solid or liquid to gas was studied. The advent of thermodynamic theories in the 19th century further solidified the term's importance in scientific discourse, as it became integral to understanding heat transfer and phase changes.
