Definitions For Gas
noun
- A pedal that controls the throttle valve
- A state of excessive gas in the alimentary canal
- The state of matter distinguished from the solid and liquid states by: relatively low density and viscosity; relatively great expansion and contraction with changes in pressure and temperature; the ability to diffuse readily; and the spontaneous tendency to become distributed uniformly throughout any container
- A volatile flammable mixture of hydrocarbons (hexane and heptane and octane etc.) derived from petroleum; used mainly as a fuel in internal-combustion engines
- A fluid in the gaseous state having neither independent shape nor volume and being able to expand indefinitely
- A fossil fuel in the gaseous state; used for cooking and heating homes
- A state in southeastern United States; one of the Confederate states during the American Civil War
- A rare silvery (usually trivalent) metallic element; brittle at low temperatures but liquid above room temperature; occurs in trace amounts in bauxite and zinc ores
- The first known nerve agent, synthesized by German chemists in 1936; a highly toxic combustible liquid that is soluble in organic solvents and is used as a nerve gas in chemical warfare
