Vapor vs gas

[Katie Phan 1K]

These terms are used interchangeably I believe.

[Charlotte Chen 3B]

Vapors tend to consist of a mixture of 2 or more different phases at room temperature (liquid and gas), and gases contain one thermodynamic state at room temperature. I would treat them as equivalent for this class though

[Lorena_Morales_1K]

Vapour is a mixture of two or more different phases at room temperature, these phases are liquid and gaseous phase. Gas usually contains a single thermodynamic state at room temperature. Vapour has a definite shape of the gaseous particles when observed under a microscope.

[Sara Sandri 2B]

They are synonymous. Vapor usually implies that it used to be a liquid and now it turned into a gas via vaporization (:

[Maya Johnson 2a]

Yes, a vapor and a gas are the same for our class.

[Edwin Liang 1I]

Yes a vapor and a gas are the same

[305614361]

They are basically the same thing but vapor is the chemical way of saying something is in gas phase

[Teti Omilana 1G]

They are used interchangeably

[Zoe Dhalla 3I]

Vapour is a mixture of two or more different phases at room temperature, these phases are liquid and gaseous phase. Gas usually contains a single thermodynamic state at room temperature. Vapour has a collection of particles without any definite shape when observed under a microscope

However, for these problems it is safe to say they are the same thing.

[Allen Mayo 1E]

I am sure that vapor and gas mean the same thing but is used in the class interchangeably.

[Allen Mayo 1E]

I am sure that vapor and gas mean the same thing but is used in the class interchangeably.

[Do Yeun Park]

Hi!
Vapor and gas are the same thing!

[Grant_2A]

They are the same thing! usually people will use vapor if referring to a solid that was just turned into a gas but there is really no difference

[Jordyn Lee 1J]

Hi, I believe vapor and gas are the same thing.

[Audrey Banzali-Marks 1A]

I'm pretty sure vapor and gas are the same! Like when something vaporizes, it just goes from the liquid to the gas phase.

[emily3L]

They can be used interchangeably.

[Lindsey Walter 3E]

They are the same thing, just two different words!

[Amy Jordan 2A]

Hi, yes vapor and gas are the same thing. Hope this helps!

[Tsii 2H]

The terms "vapor" and "gas" can be used interchangeably.

[Madison Rhynhart 3H]

This is just two ways of saying the same thing, as they are both in the gaseous phase!

[905565862]

Not really! They are in the same phase so they are essentially the same!

[Jonathan Shyu 3L]

Yes I believe vapor just means gas, they are interchangable. Vaporization means the change of liquid to gas so it is safe to assume vapor is gas.
