| For example, a gas engine is designed to vaporize gasoline and then ignite it with a spark. |
| As the samples become molten, the base metals, including the lead, vaporize or absorb into the cupels, leaving only the precious metal on top. |
| At a sufficiently high temperature the water below would vaporize and form a gas layer that supports the body of water above. |
| The intensity of the laser light is sufficient to vaporize material and produce irreversible changes. |
| Valued for their predictability, these lasers emit high energy densities within short pulses that vaporize tissue while sparing surrounding skin. |
| Warming from the sun causes frozen organic compounds on a comet's surface to sublime, or vaporize. |
