When applied to whiteware ceramics, vitreous means the material has an extremely low permeability to liquids, often but not always water, when determined by a specified test regime.

When the electric current is applied, the larger molecules move more slowly through the gel while the smaller molecules move faster.

When the hammer strikes, the head gets stopped by an opposite force coming from the target ; which is equal and opposite to the force applied by the head to the target.

When heat is applied to the meat a chemical reaction happens that turns the hemoglobin white.

When the electric current flowing through such a coil changes it produces a magnetic flux, which is, in simplest terms, a change in the magnetic field over a given area.

" When all usefulness is over, when one is assured of an unavoidable and imminent death, it is the simplest of human rights to choose a quick and easy death in place of a slow and horrible one.

When inebriated, Dean is incapable of holding even the simplest of conversations.

When a triac is connected in its simplest form, it can clip the beginning of the voltage curve, due to the minimum gate voltage of the triac.

As a reminder, medical students are taught the adage, " When you hear hoofbeats, look for horses, not zebras ," which means look for the simplest, most common explanation first.

When spoken, the word " scrod " is similar to " screwed ," slang for sexual intercourse, and thus is the basis for many jokes, the simplest of which is, " I got scrod in Boston.

When done properly, it provides the most functionality using the simplest idioms.

When this rule is broken, giving the " molecule " a charge, the result is sometimes named a molecular ion or a polyatomic ion.

When cells enter mitosis, the sister chromatids ( which represent the two copies of each chromosomal DNA molecule resulting from DNA replication earlier in the cell cycle and packaged by histones and other proteins into chromatin ) are linked all along their length by the action of the cohesin complex.

When an electron in an excited molecule or atom descends to a lower energy level, it emits a photon of light equal to the energy difference.

When oxygen is not bound, a very weakly bonded water molecule fills the site, forming a distorted octahedron.

When red cells reach the end of their life due to aging or defects, they are broken down in spleen, the hemoglobin molecule is broken up and the iron gets recycled.

When trying to define rigorously whether an arrangement of atoms is " sufficiently stable " to be considered a molecule, IUPAC suggests that it " must correspond to a depression on the potential energy surface that is deep enough to confine at least one vibrational state ".

When proteins bind specifically to other copies of the same molecule, they can oligomerize to form fibrils ; this process occurs often in structural proteins that consist of globular monomers that self-associate to form rigid fibers.

When the functional group attacking the peptide bond is a thiol, hydroxyl or amine, the resulting molecule may be called a cyclol or, more specifically, a thiacyclol, an oxacyclol or an azacyclol, respectively.

When a chlorophyll molecule at the core of the photosystem II reaction center obtains sufficient excitation energy from the adjacent antenna pigments, an electron is transferred to the primary electron-acceptor molecule, pheophytin, through a process called photoinduced charge separation.

When a ribosome finishes reading an mRNA molecule, these two subunits split apart.

When a molecule absorbs a quantum of energy that corresponds to a transition from one molecular orbital to another molecular orbital, the resulting electronic excited state is also properly described as an exciton.

When one water molecule is lost another is pulled along by the processes of cohesion and adhesion.

When the activation energy is given in molecular units instead of molar units, e. g., joules per molecule instead of joules per mole, the Boltzmann constant is used instead of the gas constant.

When the molecule relaxes it emits a photon and it returns to a different rotational or vibrational state.

When glycogen stores are not available in the cells, fat ( triacylglycerol ) is cleaved to provide 3 fatty acid chains and 1 glycerol molecule in a process known as lipolysis.
