Gas, cold to hot
Air in the jar
Particle hits wall
Balloon rubber
An ideal gas in an ideal balloon. The rubber adds no squeeze of its own, so the gas inside always matches the jar pressure. Particles never hit each other, and each dot stands for 0.0025 mol of gas. Real gas particles move at hundreds of meters per second, so the motion here is slowed way down.
