Question
particles together can exert more force.
the diagrams below show two pure samples of gas in identical closed, rigid containers,
gas a and gas b have the same temperature.
look at the number of particles in each gas. which has the higher gas pressure?
gas a
gas b
neither; their gas pressures are the same
Step1: Understand gas pressure concept
Gas pressure is caused by the collision of gas particles with the walls of the container. More particles mean more frequent collisions.
Step2: Compare number of particles
Gas A has more particles than Gas B. Since the containers are identical (same volume) and temperature is the same, more particles lead to higher pressure.
