Fixed volume In terms of gases,is that a fixed volume would mean that the pressure, temperature and the number of molecules can change but the volume, or area in which the molecules lie, must remain constant.

Think of a metal drinking bottle versus a plastic bottle. You cannot squirt water from a metal bottle because the shape is fixed, therefore the volume. You can squirt water from a plastic bottle because you can change the shape and reduce the volume.
