Vapor (gcide) | Vapor \Va"por\, n. [OE. vapour, OF. vapour, vapor, vapeur, F.
vapeur, L. vapor; probably for cvapor, and akin to Gr. ?
smoke, ? to breathe forth, Lith. kvepti to breathe, smell,
Russ. kopote fine soot. Cf. Vapid.] [Written also
vapour.]
[1913 Webster]
1. (Physics) Any substance in the gaseous, or aeriform,
state, the condition of which is ordinarily that of a
liquid or solid.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The term vapor is sometimes used in a more extended
sense, as identical with gas; and the difference
between the two is not so much one of kind as of
degree, the latter being applied to all permanently
elastic fluids except atmospheric air, the former to
those elastic fluids which lose that condition at
ordinary temperatures. The atmosphere contains more or
less vapor of water, a portion of which, on a reduction
of temperature, becomes condensed into liquid water in
the form of rain or dew. The vapor of water produced by
boiling, especially in its economic relations, is
called steam.
[1913 Webster]
Vapor is any substance in the gaseous condition
at the maximum of density consistent with that
condition. This is the strict and proper meaning
of the word vapor. --Nichol.
[1913 Webster]
2. In a loose and popular sense, any visible diffused
substance floating in the atmosphere and impairing its

required degree.

Vapor density (Chem.), the relative weight of gases and

hydrogen, but sometimes air. The vapor density of gases
and vaporizable substances as compared with hydrogen, when
