The term pressure is relatively well known and can refer to a variety of different concepts. In everyday language it most commonly describes the amount of force applied on an object or space from outside sources, such as air pressure in the atmosphere or water pressure in pipes. For example one may say: “I need to adjust the tire pressure before I drive” or “There’s too much pressure in this room, let’s open a window.”

The term calorie is widely used by people when discussing matters related with diet and nutrition but its technical definition may be less familiar even to chemists. It is used in chemistry and physics to describe the amount of heat energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree Celsius (Mikulecky, 2015). This unit can be applied to various substances such as solids and liquids that are capable of holding heat inside them. For example one might say: “We determined how many calories were contained within this food sample using thermodynamic principles”

Both terms are often used together when discussing systems related with heat such as heating systems found in buildings and other structures like homes and offices. People might ask questions like: “What type of heating system do you have installed in this building? Knowing what kind of pressures are maintained within these systems helps us understand how they behave under certain conditions (Liu et al., 2020). Moreover understanding caloric values can also help predict their behavior based on measurements taken from its associated enthalpy value.

The terms pressure and calorie are commonly employed together because they rely on each other when understanding thermodynamic processes within larger systems on both small scale and large scale operations (DeVoe et al., 2018). Modeling gases at atomic level requires knowledge about both concepts since changes in either will affect how gasses react according to their properties.
