Its potential energy increases
Its kinetic energy increases and molecule move apart

Since in the given case it is said that we compress the volume; the volume of the gas decreases. We know that as the volume decreases, area also decreases. So, when the area decreases the number of collisions per unit area increases. This causes the increase in pressure.
