  2. Lighter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lighter

    A flameless lighter is a safe alternative to traditional lighters. The flameless lighter uses an enclosed heating element which glows, so that the device does not produce an open flame. Typical flameless heating elements are an electrically heated wire or an artificial coal.

  3. Water vapor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_vapor

    Water vapor is lighter or less dense than dry air. [11] [12] At equivalent temperatures it is buoyant with respect to dry air, whereby the density of dry air at standard temperature and pressure (273.15 K, 101.325 kPa) is 1.27 g/L and water vapor at standard temperature has a vapor pressure of 0.6 kPa and the much lower density of 0.0048 g/L.

  4. Lifting gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifting_gas

    Only certain lighter than air gases are suitable as lifting gases. Dry air has a density of about 1.29 g/L (gram per liter) at standard conditions for temperature and pressure (STP) and an average molecular mass of 28.97 g/mol, [1] and so lighter-than-air gases have a density lower than this.

  5. Flame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame

    This high flame temperature is partially due to the absence of hydrogen in the fuel (dicyanoacetylene is not a hydrocarbon) thus there is no water among the combustion products. Cyanogen, with the formula (CN) 2, produces the second-hottest-known natural flame with a temperature of over 4,525 °C (8,177 °F) when it burns in oxygen. [11] [12]

  6. δ18O - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Δ18O

    The ratio varies slightly depending on the temperature of the surrounding water, as well as other factors such as the water's salinity, and the volume of water locked up in ice sheets. δ 18 O also reflects local evaporation and freshwater input, as rainwater is 16 O-enriched—a result of the preferential evaporation of the lighter 16 O from ...

    Fill the container halfway with water, then add the turkey, ensuring it’s submerged in the water. Keep the container near the sink to change out the water if it dips below 40°F.

  8. Evaporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporation

    Water vapor is an invisible gas, but the clouds of condensed droplets refract and scatter the sunlight and are thus visible. Droplets of water vapor in a pan. Demonstration of evaporative cooling. When the sensor is dipped in ethanol and then taken out to evaporate, the instrument shows progressively lower temperature as the ethanol evaporates.

    This all has to do with the journey of water in the water cycle. Water from the ocean, lakes and streams evaporates into the sky, then condenses and comes down as rainfall.
