What's the difference between disintegrate and integrity?

Disintegrate


Definition:

  • (v. t.) To separate into integrant parts; to reduce to fragments or to powder; to break up, or cause to fall to pieces, as a rock, by blows of a hammer, frost, rain, and other mechanical or atmospheric influences.
  • (v. i.) To decompose into integrant parts; as, chalk rapidly disintegrates.

Integrity


Definition:

  • (n.) The state or quality of being entire or complete; wholeness; entireness; unbroken state; as, the integrity of an empire or territory.
  • (n.) Moral soundness; honesty; freedom from corrupting influence or motive; -- used especially with reference to the fulfillment of contracts, the discharge of agencies, trusts, and the like; uprightness; rectitude.
  • (n.) Unimpaired, unadulterated, or genuine state; entire correspondence with an original condition; purity.
