Question

why gas exerts pressure

Answer 1

Answer:

due to collision the particles move more and more vigorously and exerts pressure and moves out of the vessel

Answer 2

Answer:

The molecules are continually colliding with each other and with the walls of the container. When a molecule collides with the wall, they exert small force on the wall The pressure exerted by the gas is due to the sum of all these collision forces.The more particles that hit the walls, the higher the pressure.
