Pressure is due to particles colliding with the walls of the container in which the system is encompassed.

Therefore, for a lower pressure (with the same number of particles), the particles would have to collide less frequently with the container walls.

How can you make a liquid boil without raising its temperature?

Reduce the surrounding pressure. Lowering the pressure on a liquid reduces its boiling point, causing it to boil at a lower temperature.

State and explain how the boiling point of water will change if the atmospheric pressure falls?

Water boils when its internal pressure reaches that of the atmospheric pressure. Therefor, if one lowers the atmospheric pressure, the water would boil at a lower temperature (in fact, one can make water boil at room temperature by dramatically lowering the atmospheric pressure).


Could you measure that air takes up space?

Blowing up a balloon is essentially a measurement of air taking up space. The balloon does add slightly to the pressure (although the newer Mylar balloons often have less pressure). However, the space occupied by the balloon defines the space occupied by the air (or gas) inside. Helium or Hydrogen are lighter than air. They will still take up space in your balloon, but because they have a lower density than air, they cause the balloons to float. If you have a pressure chamber/vacuum chamber, you can cause the same amount of air to take up more space by lowering the outside pressure, or make it take up less space by increasing the pressure.


What happens when pressures are unbalanced?

if you mean in a chemical equation, then if the pressures are unbalanced, the reaction will shift to whatever side has less pressure, to make more pressure so its balanced out again.


Would you expect the the pressure exerted by water to be greater or less than the pressure exerted by the same amount of air?

The pressure exerted by water would be greater than the pressure exerted by the same amount of air due to water's higher density. Water molecules are packed closely together, leading to more collisions with the walls of the container and thus a higher pressure compared to air molecules.

What make milkshake go up your straw?

When you suck on the straw, the pressure inside your mouth is less than the outside air pressure. Because of the imbalance, the outside pressure pushes the milkshake down the glass, up the straw and into your mouth.
