Gas pressure is the pressure on an object caused by a gas.
About Gas Pressure
 |
| The particle model of a gas showing the particles as red balls and their speed and direction shown by the arrows. The longer the arrows the faster they are moving. |
- The gas pressure can be increased in two ways.
 |
 |
| Increasing the temperature of the gas which makes the particles move faster. This causes the particles to hit the walls of the container more often and with a greater force. | Increasing the number of particles in the container. |
