Mist a gas or liquid?

A mist of oil is, well, a mist. Is it a liquid? The oil is divided into extremely fine droplets to form the mist. If a pressurized oil line develops a small crack, the oil can be released as a mist. As the oil is actually tiny droplets that are suspended in air, it isn't considered a liquid. But it isn't a gas, either. There is a term that can be applied to an oil mist. The term is vapor. A vapor usually describes a liquid that is now suspended in air because it has been divided into extremely small portions that, though they are well above the size of molecules, are a lot more tiny than droplets that would fall like rain. When a vapor is formed, the tiny droplets forming that vapor are so small that they are actually being acted upon by air molecules in a way that causes them to be suspended there. It is, at the same time, fairly easy to observe this phenomena. Cool, huh? *Warning!* A vapor of any flammable liquid is extremely flammable! And that's only if it is not outright explosive!
