Question

how does the gas exert pressure?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The pressure exerted by a gas is due to the random motion of particles in the gas. Gases have weak intermolecular forces and the particles in continuous random motion and these particles collide with the walls of the container. These collisions with the walls of the container exerts pressure on the gas.

Answer 2

Answer:

Gas pressure is caused by the force exerted by gas molecules colliding with the surfaces of objects . Although the force of each collision is very small, any surface of appreciable area experiences a large number of collisions in a short time, which can result in a high pressure
