The ancient American prophet of Mormon theology who wrote the Book of Ether in the Book of Mormon
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)
{n} highly rectified spirit, consisting of alcohol, hydrogene and oxygene, a pure thin element
the fifth and highest element after air and earth and fire and water; was believed to be the substance composing all heavenly bodies
a medium that was once supposed to fill all space and to support the propagation of electromagnetic waves
(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 colorless volatile highly inflammable liquid formerly used as an inhalation anesthetic
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 light volatile flammable liquid (C4H10O) used chiefly as a solvent and anaesthetic
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 molecule containing a C-O-H double bond to another O, making this part of an ester linkage, or some other exception holds
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
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
It is powerful solvent of fats, resins, and pyroxylin, but finds its chief use as an anæsthetic
A compound in which an oxygen atom is attached to two carbon atoms, such as diethyl ether, CH3CH2OCH2CH3
A clear, colorless, highly flammable liquid with a low boiling point and chemical formula CH3-CH2-O-CH2-CH3. Used as a solvent and in the past as a general anesthetic
Pertaining to the hypothetical upper, purer air, or to the higher regions beyond the earth or beyond the atmosphere; celestial; otherworldly; as, ethereal space; ethereal regions
I trust that we shall be more imaginative, that our thoughts will be clearer, fresher, and more ethereal, as our sky,.
A volatile petroleum fraction, usually available in a number of fractions boiling between 40°C and 140°C. Used as a solvent in the laboratory and industry
{i} (Physics) theoretical medium of great elasticity and extreme thinness of consistency supposed to fill all unoccupied space and transmit light and heat
Ethereal means unrelated to practical things and the real world. the ethereal nature of romantic fiction. very delicate and light, in a way that does not seem real
Pertaining to the hypothetical upper, purer air, or to the higher regions beyond the earth or beyond the atmosphere; celestial; as, ethereal space; ethereal regions
Someone or something that is ethereal has a delicate beauty. She's the prettiest, most ethereal romantic heroine in the movies. gorgeous, hauntingly ethereal melodies
characterized by unusual lightness and delicacy; "this smallest and most ethereal of birds"; "gossamer shading through his playing" of or containing or dissolved in ether; "ethereal solution
characterized by lightness and insubstantiality; as impalpable or intangible as air; "figures light and aeriform come unlooked for and melt away"- Thomas Carlyle; "aerial fancies"; "an airy apparition"; "physical rather than ethereal forms"
