Background knowledge Pressure of a gas is the force per unit area that the gas enters on surface.
Pressure is measured in pastels (Pa), Where 1Pa = 1 Nm⁻² . The pressure of a
gas depends on its temperature, the volume of the gas container and on the
mass of the gas in the container.

Experiment 1 - Aim Investigate how pressure changes with volume, by keeping the number of
particles and temperature constant. (Boyle’s Law)

Process Step 1 - Open the link provided.


Step 2 - Get to know how you can vary the physical quantities in the
simulation.(5 mins)
Step 3 - Start the experiment by giving one or two pump so particles enter the
container
Step 4 - Adjust the temperature to 300K and keep it constant through out this
experiment 1.
Step 5 - Change the particle number to 100 keep it constant through out this
experiment 1.
Step 6 - You need to start observing the pressure form 5nm of volume.Take 5
more reading for volume and pressure. Complete the table with the readings
and calculation.
