'''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. Moles can be calculated by a form of the ideal gas law. n=(P | '''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.

'''Temperature (T)''': Measures in K, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin Kelvin], Temperature above 360 K and below 260 K causes burn damage to humans. Bomb making usually relies on a temperature at or in excess of 90 000 K. Canisters rupture when the air surrounding them is over 1550 K. | '''Temperature (T)''': Measures in K, [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kelvin Kelvin], Temperature above 360 K and below 260 K causes burn damage to humans.
