Preferred Label : pressure;
Detailed label : pressure, p;
IUPAC definition : Normal force acting on a surface divided by the area of that surface. For a mixture
of gases the contribution by each constituent is called the partial pressure p i
x i p, where x i is the amount fraction em x /em ( em y /em for gaseous mixtures)
of the ith constituent and p is the total pressure.;
