gas behavior

Gases consist of tiny particles moving rapidly and randomly in all directions. These particles are spread out and have lots of space between them. Because of their speed and movement, gases can expand to fill any container and are compressible. The behavior of gases is influenced by temperature, pressure, and volume: higher temperatures increase particle speed, raising pressure; increasing pressure pushes particles closer together; and changing volume alters how spread out particles are. These behaviors are described by scientific laws like Boyle’s and Charles’s, which help predict how gases respond to different conditions.
