A volatile liquid, C{4}H{10}O, formed from the addition of sulphuric acid to alcohol (now only spelled ether)
personification of the sky or upper air breathed by the Olympians; son of Erebus and Night or of Chaos and Darkness
A classical physical element, considered as prevalent in the heavens and inaccessible to humans
An elastic substance once thought to fill all space, and to allow for the transmission of light
{i} (Physics) theoretical medium of great elasticity and extreme thinness of consistency supposed to fill all unoccupied space and transmit light and heat
A classical physical element, considered as prevalent in the heavens and inaccessible to humans. In some versions of alchemy, this was the fifth element in addition to air, earth, fire and water
A substance (aether) once thought to fill all space that allowed Electromagnetic waves to pass through it and interact with matter, without exerting any resistance to matter or energy (disproved by Einstein in his Theory of Relativity)
(Pronounced ith-er) - heavenly substance said to be the origins of both energy and matter on the plane of the physical, a mystical element Sorcerors and Wizards may tap to gain powers such as telepath, telekenisis, and transfiguration of energy/matter (I E Teleportation, Synthesis of objects from thin air ETC)
A light, volatile, mobile, inflammable liquid, (C2H5)2O, of a characteristic aromatic odor, obtained by the distillation of alcohol with sulphuric acid, and hence called also sulphuric ether
A substance (aether) once thought to fill all space that allowed Electromagnetic waves to pass through it and interact with matter, without exerting any resistance to matter or energy (disproved by Einstien in his Theory of Relativity)
Ether is a colourless liquid that burns easily. It is used in industry and in medicine as an anaesthetic. a sweetish smell of ether and iodine. Any of a class of organic compounds whose molecular structure has an oxygen atom interposed between two carbon atoms that are part of hydrocarbon molecules. Ethers have the general chemical formula ROR, in which R and R represent the hydrocarbons. They resemble alcohols but generally are less dense, less soluble in water, more volatile, and more inert. They are used in chemical processing, for extraction and separation of chemicals, and as solvents. Some are used as insecticides and soil fumigants. They are also used in medicine and pharmacology. Codeine is the methyl ether of morphine. The term ether often refers to ethyl ether (C2H5OC2H5), best known as an anesthetic but also used as a solvent, an extractant, and a reaction medium
a colorless volatile highly inflammable liquid formerly used as an inhalation anesthetic a medium that was once supposed to fill all space and to support the propagation of electromagnetic waves any of a class of organic compounds that have two hydrocarbon groups linked by an oxygen atom
A medium of great elasticity and extreme tenuity, supposed to pervade all space, the interior of solid bodies not excepted, and to be the medium of transmission of light and heat; hence often called luminiferous ether
