: [[Pressure]] on the walls of the container is affected by how often the [[particle]]s [[collide]] with the walls and fast they are moving when they do.
: Increasing the [[temperature]] of a [[gas]] causes the [[particle]]s to move faster making them hit the walls of the container harder and more often. This increases the [[pressure]] in the container.
: Increasing the [[pressure]] on the walls of the container form outside can [[compression|compress]] the [[gas]] into a smaller [[Volume (Space)|volume]]. When this happens [[Work Done|work]] is done on the [[gas]] increasing its [[temperature]].
===Kinetic Theory and Volume===
: [[Kinetic Theory]] [[explain]]s how the [[Volume (Space)|volume]] of a [[gas]] is affected by the [[temperature]] of a gas.
: When a [[gas]] is not in a container or the container can change size then when the [[temperature]] increases and causes a [[pressure]] increase the [[gas]] will increase in [[Volume (Space)|volume]].
: Increasing the [[Volume (Space)volume]] of a [[gas]] at constant [[temperature]] will decrease the [[pressure]] on the walls of the container because it takes the [[particle]]s longer to move from one side of the container to the other. This means there will be less frequent [[collision]]s of the [[particle]]s with the walls.
