Question

Describe how the motions of gas particles are related to the pressure exerted by the gas.

Answer 1

Pressure, = force per area. so pressure is defined as in how frequently the gas particles hit the walls of the container.

let's say if we reduce the volume, or the space the gas has to move around and we keep everything else the temperature constant we get from

\[PV = nRT \]

\[P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}\]
