An alternative story is that Van Helmont's word is corrupted from gahst or geist , signifying a ghost or spirit | Boyle's lab equipment allowed the use of to obtain his analytical results |
This approximation is more suitable for applications in engineering although simpler models can be used to produce a "ball-park" range as to where the real solution should lie | This means that these ideal equations provide reasonable results except for extremely high pressure compressible or high temperature ionized conditions |

In contrast, a molecule in a solid can only increase its vibrational modes with the addition of heat as the lattice crystal structure prevents both linear and rotational motions | For assumptions of kinetic theory see McPherson, pp |
