		If a gas (only a gas), such as oxygen, is in a cylinder, the pressure meter attached gives an accurate estimate of the amount of gas contained within.
		If the pressure in the container is doubled, then the amount of gas dissolved is also doubles, but because of Boyles law (V 1/P), the volume of gas dissolved is halved, so the said volume is the same as it was initially, even though there are twice as many molecules dissolved.

		In an industrial process, a gas confined to a volume of 1 L at a pressure of 20 atm is allowed to flow into a 12-L container by opening the valve that connects the two containers.
		If a gas contracts by 1/273 of its volume for each degree of cooling, it should contract to zero volume at a temperature of –273°C. This, of course, is the absolute zero of temperature, and this extrapolation of Charles' law is the first evidence of the special significance of this temperature.

	The behavior of gasses
		A gas can be characterized by three parameters - the volume of the container that holds it; the pressure it is subjected to; the temperature it is held at.
		The pressure of a gas is the result of collisions of air molecules with the sides of the container - the more energetic the molecules, the greater the pressure.
		Recall that K (the "gas constant") was a constant independent of the type, but tied to the volume of the gas.

		For a gas, "standard conditions" (when a substance is a gas under such conditions) is defined as a temperature of 0°C and a pressure of 1 atm(osphere).
		NOTE: The derivation of the ideal gas law does assume that gravity is insignificant: that is, it is legitimate to represent the center-of-mass trajectories of the gas molecules between collisions as straight lines.
		The general technique is to notice that when the volume of a gas increases at constant pressure [say, in an effectively friction-free gas-tight piston], the work done by an increase in volume dV is P dV.

		A gas is a form of matter that consists of a collection of molecules in chaotic, random motion.
		Unlike a solid or liquid, the molecules of a gas are widely separated, and a gas will expand or contract to fit the container in which it is held.
		Since a gas is free to expand or contract (it is compressible), the behavior of a gas is susceptible to several factors.
