Because as there is a pressure between the gas molecules and as the molecules have more the force of attraction between as they gets closer to each and as the gas is compressed the molecules have less intermolecular force,the pressure the pressure increases pressure increases the volume of the gas gets decrease and according to Boyle's law also V( Volume) is inversely proportional to the temperature

V =i\p(inversely propotional)

What kind of substance can be compressed into a jar to change its volume?

A gas.


Why can the vulume of a gas change and the solid of a remain constaant?

In a solid,particles are packed tightly to each other while the gas particles are not packed tightly. So the gas particles can be compressed and can change the volume. Solids cannot be compressed to change the volume.


Which of the gas properties will change?

When a gas is compressed, its volume will decrease, its pressure will increase, and its temperature may increase.


Does the vloume of a gas change when its compressed?

Yes, when a gas is compressed it could form into a solid or liquid substance.


Can the particles in gas be compressed into smaller volume?

Yes, particles in a gas can be compressed into a smaller volume by reducing the space between them. This will increase the pressure of the gas as the particles are forced closer together.


Is compressed natural gas a liquid?

no it's a gas, compressed to around 1% of normal volume. If it was compressed to the liquid state, you'd call it liquified natural gas (LNG).


Can the volume of gas change?

yes...... because gas particles are far apart (this is wy it is gas and not liquid or solid) it can be compressed into a smaller space. (to a certain point)yesYes


What is the formula to calculate the compressed gas cylinder volume?

The formula to calculate the volume of a compressed gas cylinder is V r2h, where V is the volume, r is the radius of the cylinder, and h is the height of the cylinder.


How do you work out volume of compressed air?

To calculate the volume of compressed air, use the ideal gas law equation: PV = nRT, where P is the pressure of the compressed air, V is the volume, n is the number of moles of gas, R is the ideal gas constant, and T is the temperature. This formula allows you to calculate the volume of the compressed air if you know the pressure, temperature, and quantity of air.


What happens to the number of molecules of the gas when it is compressed?

When a gas is compressed, the volume it occupies decreases, causing the gas molecules to be closer together. The number of molecules remains the same, as no molecules are added or removed during compression.


As a gas is compressed in a cylinder does its volume decrease?

"Force the substance into a smaller volume" is pretty much the definition of "compress".


Why can oxygen gas in a syringe be compressed to a smaller volume?

Oxygen gas in a syringe can be compressed to a smaller volume because gases are highly compressible compared to liquids and solids. When the volume of the syringe is reduced, the gas molecules are forced closer together, leading to an increase in pressure and a decrease in volume.
