pV=nRt


If you’ve studied chemistry then you must have studied the Ideal Gas. If you
have studied the Ideal Gas then you must know pV=nRt. However, if you haven’t
studied Chemistry then you’re one lucky fellow :D
I was sitting with loads of homework to do and answering a question about the
Ideal Gas equation, and all of a sudden I thought…
For a gas’s behaviour to be ideal, the temperature must be very high and the
pressure as low as possible. (Never mind that… just go on :P). Well, doesn’t that
kind of apply to us too? If we say that the temperature is our motivation –the heat
that moves us, and the pressure is the stress put on us externally; so with maximum
motivation and minimal stress we’d get the ideal results, right?!
So I listed the reasons why I want to do this homework (boosting my motivation)
and then breathed in, breathed out, moved more than 14 muscles in my face to
smile and wrote the answer:
“Increase temperature and decrease pressure ;)”
Funnily enough, I actually drew a wink in my chemistry book :P
N.B. I’m sure some of you would criticise me saying that I should have mentioned
HOW to boost your motivation and release stress technically. But I’m not a
specialist. I’m just an 11th grader writing her thoughts and I hate pontification (i.e.
El Efta). :D You’ll definitely find many useful articles on the Web.
