No; rather the reverse, as you rise up into the atmosphere, the air pressure decreases.
Why? Air pressure is caused by the weight of the air above you. (If air did not have weight, it would all drift away into space and we'd be in a vacuum.) As you ascend, there is less air above you to make that pressure, so the pressure decreases. What does ascend mean?
Yes, because the amount of air "stacked on top of you" is less as you go higher. By the time you reach 18,000 feet (5500 meters) of altitude, the air pressure is about half as high as at sea level, and by 27,000 feet (8200 meters), it is about a third as much. (Of course, the important aspect of lower pressure, starting above 10,000 feet (3000 meters) is the lack of available oxygen to breathe.)
No, the opposite happens. The pressure decreases because you have less weight of air above you as you go higher.
Yes, because of the effect of gravity, air molecules are more concentraded in low altitudes, as altitude increases there are fewer air molecules, therefore less air pressure.
As altitude increases, pressure decreases.
it increases.
The decrease in pressure and temperature can be easily justified by manipulating the variables in the real gas equation. The van der Waals model is enough to demonstrate this.

The atmospheric pressure reduces
Air pressure decreases as you move away from the earth into the atmosphere. Think of it as the air above you pushes down on you. The farther up you go, the less air is above you to push down. Air temp also decreases as you go up.
it increases.
Air pressure decreases as you go up.
Generally, atmospheric pressure is greatest at ground level, because you are at the bottom of the 25 mile thick atmosphere of earth. Greatest water pressure in a swimming pool is at the bottom, too. As you go up into the atmosphere, the pressure tends to decrease.
decrease
Pressure increases as you go down.
The pressure and the temperature would go on increasing .
The decrease in pressure and temperature can be easily justified by manipulating the variables in the real gas equation. The van der Waals model is enough to demonstrate this.
Because the deeper you go the more water you have on top of you, every 10 meters you go under water, you have another atmosphere on top of you, the wieg that is pressed to you is what causes the pressure
There is more atmospheric pressure in the Sahara Desert. The number of air molecules around us decrease as we go higher into the atmosphere, which also causes the air pressure to decrease. Since the Sahara Desert is closer to sea level than Mount Everest is, there are more air molecules and more pressure there.

The Earth's atmosphere declines with altitude.
