There would literally be no air as there would be no space for it to occupy. If you compress air sufficiently it will liquify, but stilll occupy a discrete volumes.

How many particles are in a square inch of air?

None. A square inch or air is a measure of area. It has no height at all and so, the volume is zero. A volume of zero cannot contain any particles.


Does gas particles have volume?

According to the ideal gas law, the volume of individual gas particles is assumed to be zero. Of course, this isn't possible; all matter has volume. However, if we assume they have zero volume (along with collisions which are 100% elastic and statistically random motion) it makes the math a lot easier.


What is the example of Zero velocity but non zero accelerator?

Throwing a ball straight up in the air. It will reach some peak where the velocity is zero, but the acceleration due to gravity is a constant -9.8m/s^2.


What percent percentage of fresh air is inspired with each breath in normal individuals at rest does not reach the alveoli?

About 30%. The air trapped in ANATOMICAL DEAD SPACE which is about 150 ml does not reach into the alveoli in each breath of 500ml (TIDAL VOLUME)approx.


Does a cubic meter of air have less mass higher up?

Yes. The density of the air (and thus mass per unit volume) deceases all the way to zero (in space) as the altitude increases.

Why not all tidal volume reach alveoli for gaseous exchange?

The amount of air that reaches the alveoli is 150 mls less than the tidal volume. The reason for this is that this amount remains in an area called "dead space"


Would air ever have zero volume at absolute zero?

No - the ideal gas law is an approximation for ideal gases, it doesn't apply exactly for real gases. Deviations are greater at very small temperatures, or very high pressures.


Does Air have a volume?

Yes. Air is a gas, gasses are fluids, and fluids have volume.


What happens to volume when air temperature increases?

If pressure remains constant, then volume is directly proportional to temperature. Hot air is quite loud.
