vaporizing
Turning to mist
Vaporizing is converting a substance into vapor—a gas or fine mist.
Water vaporizes when boiled.
In contemporary use, vaporizing often refers to inhaling substances through a vaporizer rather than smoking: She switched to vaporizing her cannabis.
Figuratively, to vaporize something is to destroy it completely, as if it vanished into thin air: The explosion vaporized the building.
