What ef ect does changing the number of gas particles in a container have on the gas pressure in the container? Use the kinetic theory of gases in your explanation.
In this way, the relationship between gas pressure and number of gas particles can be well explained by the Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gases

question Number four is very similar to question number two and that we will use the kinetic molecular theory in order to explain why pressure increases as we increase the number of gas particles. So I'll use this same picture that we had before and the number density equation. The number density equation tells us that if we increase the number of particles according to this algebraic expression, we have to increase this, so both of them increased proportionally according to the proportionality constant. However, according to the molecular kinetic molecular theory, we're going to increase the pressure because as we increase the number of gas particles, pressure in the kinetic molecular theory is due to the collisions with the walls of the container. More gas particles result in more collisions, which result in greater pressure, greater collisions, greater pressure. So that's why increasing the number of gas particles will increase the pressure in the container
