'''Volume (V)''': Another unseen variable, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volume Volume] is how much the area/canister/tank or piped tank has space inside it. This helps dictate how much gas it can hold. Volume is essentially the 'mole divider' when converting between a canister/air pump to your tank; having a higher volume essentially makes the tank that much more efficient, proportionally, so an Extended Emergency Oxygen Tank has twice the contained air per kPa in comparison to a regular Emergency Oxygen Tank.

* The small, blue Emergency Oxygen tanks have volume 3.
* The yellow Extended Emergency Oxygen tanks have volume 6.
* The big, blue or red Oxygen Tanks and orange Plasma Tanks have volume 70.
* Lockers or a coffins have volume 200.
* The huge canisters have volume 1000.
* Tiles of space have volume 2500.
* Gas and volume pumps have volume 200 on each side.
* Passive gates have volume 200 on each side.
* All pipes have volume 70 or 105 (manifold only).
* Vents & scrubbers have volume 200.
* Portable pumps have volume 1000.
* Portable scrubbers have volume 750.
* Unmovable pressure tanks have volume 10000.
* Huge scrubbers have volume 50000.
* Manual and digital valves have no volume.
* Heat exchangers have volume 200.
* Gas filters have volume 200 on each side.
* Gas mixers have volume 200 on input sides and 300 on output side.

'''Moles (n)''': While not a variable that can be seen, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mole_(unit) Moles] are the amount of particles of a gas in the air. It is moles that cause odd effects with a certain chemical. As it dumps so many moles to a tile, to keep the pressure acceptable, the moles have to be very, very cold, causing the infectious effect.
