Though ice, camphor, and many other solids evaporate readily in dry air, I shall consider, at present, merely the vaporization of water by heat artificially applied.
This turbulent vaporization takes place at any temperature, even down to the freezing point, provided the pneumatic pressure be removed from the liquid by the air pump, or any other means.
It is the temperature only that is latent, and latent temperature means sensiblevaporization or liquefaction.
I mean to express the heat consumed in accomplishing the vaporization compared with that necessary for producing the temperature.
Heat is absorbed in the liquefaction of ice, and in the vaporization of water, yet the temperature does not rise during either process, and the heat absorbed is therefore said to become latent.
Finally, when liquid air is confined in any vessel not capable of sustaining an enormous pressure, say about ten thousand pounds to the square inch, the vaporization goes on until the vessel bursts or the stopper is forced out.
Under these conditionsvaporization takes place quite slowly, and it is possible to transport the liquid comparatively long distances.
The fire is thus rapidly extinguished by the vaporizationof the carbon dioxide and water spray.
The vaporizationand expansion of the liquid carbonic acid cause it to congeal in the form of snow, which distributes itself and circulates in the worm, S, and then in R.
The difficulties arise in connexion with the determination of the quantities of ice melted or steam condensed, and in measuring the latent heat of fusion or vaporization in terms of other units for the comparison of observations.
Griffiths subsequently applied the same method to the measurement of the specific heat of aniline, and the latent heat of vaporization of benzene and water.
The rapid vaporization in chamber B absorbs heat from the immediate surroundings and will freeze water placed in the tank E.
Water is placed in shallow pans and then dry air is circulated over it, causing so rapid a vaporization as to cool the water to the freezing point.
If the temperature of the confined space be increased, opportunity will thereby be provided for the vaporization of more water, but if it be decreased, its capacity for moisture will be reduced and visible water will be deposited.
The triple point is not only the point of intersection of the vaporization and sublimation curves, but it is also the end-point of the fusion curve.
In this figure, OB represents the sublimation curve of ice, and BC the vaporization curve of water; the curve for the solution must lie below this, and must cut the sublimation curve of ice at some temperature below the melting point.
This is the curve of vapour pressure, or the vaporization curve of water.
Further, in the case of a pure liquid, the vaporization curve is a function only of the temperature (p.
The sublimation and vaporization curves, therefore, are not straight lines, but are bent, the convex side of the curve being towards the temperature axis in the ordinary pt-diagram.
This theorem of Le Chatelier is of very great importance, for it applies to all systems and changes of the condition of equilibrium, whether physical or chemical; to vaporization and fusion; to solution and chemical action.
According to the caloric theory, the heat absorbed in the expansion of a gas became latent, like the latent heat of vaporization of a liquid, but remained in the gas and was again evolved on compressing the gas.
There is a very close analogy between these phenomena and the vaporization of a liquid.
Then Bill took the apparatus to pieces and showed Tommy that the vaporization of the kerosene had been complete.
I certainly do get the vaporizationall right, all right.
After a moment Bill spoke calmly, "You know heat is not enough to effect the perfect vaporization of the kerosene.
We learn that the heat of vaporization is the same whether it is considered as the heat absorbed by 1 gram of water in its change to steam, or as the heat given out by 1 gram of steam during its condensation into water.
Very careful experiments show the exact heat of vaporizationto be 536.
Thermodynamics will furnish us, in addition, with the expression of the heat of vaporization and of, the specific heats of the two saturated fluids.
The outer zones of crystalline matter having been suddenly refrigerated by the rapid vaporizationand partial escape of the water they contained, abstracted caloric from the intensely heated nucleus of the globe.
The surface of this ocean was exposed to continued vaporization owing to intense heat; but this process, abstracting caloric from the stratum of the water below, by partially cooling it, tended to preserve the remainder in a liquid form.
A gas made from the vaporization of crude petroleum or of its distillates.
It will be remembered that reference was made to the manner in which vaporization takes place, this term being used to designate that tendency of all liquids to change into a gaseous state.
Thus by tapping different portions of the column, vapors of different degrees of vaporization are found and may be carried off and the phlegm be thus fractionated.
Smith[11] who, recognizing the importance of knowing exactly the heat of vaporization of water at 20°, has made this a special object of investigation.
The heat necessary to effect this vaporization is abstracted from brine or other liquid, which is circulated through the refrigerator by means of a pump.
This brine also circulates around coils of wrought iron pipes, in which the liquid ammonia passing from the condenser is vaporized, the heat required for this vaporization being obtained from the brine.
I grant that circumstances have their influence, and that often this is not small; but there are impulses within, to which things external are as lava to the volcano.
The graces collect around it, and the laurel comes at its bidding.
Here we have a good deal more heat than is necessary to account for that vaporization of the seas of the globe which seems to have taken place during the Drift Age.
The first effect of the great heat is the vaporization of the waters of the earth; but this is arrested long before it has completed its work.
The power of vaporization amounts to 20 kilogrammes of water per hour, while the quantity of coal consumed during the same period amounts to only 4 kilogrammes, which is comparatively little for a boiler of so small a power.
The seething of the blood, however, was carefully kept by him below the point of vaporization and adapted to maintain the circulation by keeping the muscular cardiac pump at work.
This relief is not due so much to the shade as to the cooling effect of the vaporization from the leaves of the tree.
This vaporization of liquids is a frigorific or cooling process, and when most rapid the frigorific effect reaches its maximum.
The above list will hopefully give you a few useful examples demonstrating the appropriate usage of "vaporization" in a variety of sentences. We hope that you will now be able to make sentences using this word. Other words: distillation; evaporation; fumigation; smoking; steaming; sublimation
