What does VAPOR mean in Scrabble?
noun
North American
The gaseous form of a substance that is normally liquid or solid, especially fine droplets or gas-like moisture suspended in the air, such as water vapor or steam.
Vapor is the American spelling of vapour, and it names the gas-like state a substance takes when it evaporates or is heated enough to leave its liquid or solid form, most commonly seen as the visible mist of water vapor rising from a boiling kettle or a warm shower. Scientists use vapor precisely to mean the gaseous phase of something normally found as a liquid, distinguishing it from a true permanent gas that cannot easily be turned back into a liquid by pressure alone. Outside chemistry and physics, vapor also describes visible clouds of breath on a cold day or the fumes given off by substances like fuel or perfume. The word appears constantly in weather reports, chemistry classrooms and everyday descriptions of steam and mist.
