1.	On reducing the volume at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas increases. Explain it on the basis of kinetic theory.
Answer» SOLUTION :On reducing the volume at constant TEMPERATURE , the number of molecules PER unit volume increases. Then the number of collisions per SECOND with the walls of the container and hence pressure the gas increases.
