Introduction A gas is the state of matter that is characterized by having neither a fixed shape nor a fixed volume. Gases exert pressure‚ are compressible‚ have low densities and diffuse rapidly when mixed with other gases. On a microscopic level‚ the molecules (or atoms) in a gas are separated by large distances and are in constant‚ random motion. When dealing with gases‚ the Ideal Gas Law equation is the most famous equation used to relate all the factors in dealing and solving the problem
