Aerospace | 1. The physical process by which a vapor becomes a liquid or solid; the opposite of evaporation.2. Specifically, in meteorology, the transformation from vapor to liquid. See sublimation. (references) |
Energy | The process by which water in air changes from a vapor to a liquid due to a change in temperature or pressure; occurs when water vapor reaches its dew point (condensation point); also used to express the existence of liquid water on a surface. (references) |
Environment | The process by which molecules in the atmosphere collide and adhere to small particles. (references) |

Lexicography | Devil's Dictionary | MOLECULE, n. The ultimate, indivisible unit of matter. It is distinguished from the corpuscle, also the ultimate, indivisible unit of matter, by a closer resemblance to the atom, also the ultimate, indivisible unit of matter. Three great scientific theories of the structure of the universe are the molecular, the corpuscular and the atomic. A fourth affirms, with Haeckel, the condensation of precipitation of matter from ether -- whose existence is proved by the condensation of precipitation. The present trend of scientific thought is toward the theory of ions. The ion differs from the molecule, the corpuscle and the atom in that it is an ion. A fifth theory is held by idiots, but it is doubtful if they know any more about the matter than the others. |
