What is "liquefied"

Usage examples of "liquefied".

The liquefied substances soon after reached the bottom of the barrier.

Quick inflection depends partly on the quantity of the substance given, so that many glands are simultaneously affected, partly on the facility with which it is penetrated and liquefied by the secretion, partly on its nature, but chiefly on the presence of exciting matter already in solution.

The residue left on the leaves, after they were fully reexpanded, was examined under a high power and found much altered, but, owing to the presence of a quantity of elastic tissue, which is never acted on, could hardly be said to be in a liquefied condition.

Thin portions, about 1/10 of an inch square, were placed on several leaves, and though the fibrin was soon liquefied, the whole was never dissolved.

The bits were not liquefied, but were certainly in an altered condition, being swollen, much more transparent, and so tender as to disintegrate very easily.

On all seven leaves the fibrous tissue was converted into perfectly transparent, viscid, more or less liquefied little masses.

The glands which had remained in contact for two or three days with the viscid masses were not discoloured, and apparently had absorbed little of the liquefied tissue, or had been little affected by it.

The jelly on all four was by this time liquefied, and rendered very acid.

The chips were greatly softened, almost liquefied, but not nearly all dissolved.

Soon after that, Michael Faraday, who had earlier (1823) liquefied chlorine, employed a carbon dioxide and ether mixture to reach the record low temperature of -110 degrees Celsius (163 K).

In 1886, Joseph Dewar invented the Dewar flask (which we think of today as the thermos bottle) that allowed cold, liquefied materials to be stored for substantial periods of time at atmospheric pressure.

In 1898, Dewar liquefied hydrogen in quantity and reached a temperature of 20 K.

In 1820, just three years before Michael Faraday liquefied chlorine, the Danish scientist Hans Christian Oersted and then the Frenchman André Marie Ampère found that there was a relation between electricity and magnetism—a flowing current would make a magnet move.

One plausible current conjecture is that Titan has an ocean—but an ocean of ethane and methane, rather like liquefied natural gas.

The wicks, after several trials, were made of vegetable fibers, and dipped in the liquefied substance, they formed regular stearic candles, molded by the hand, which only wanted whiteness and polish.
