Why do gases exert more pressure on the wall of the container than the solids?

Particles of gases are free and can move easily. But as they are kept in a container they can't move so easily(but they are moving...they are loosely packed) as they can so they start colliding with each other. Hence they exert more pressure then solids as particles of solids can't move...they are tightly packed .
Hope it helps..

Explanation:
Gases have high KE due to which particles keeps on moving rapidly as a result particles hits the walls of the container and exert pressure.
