Gases are highly compressible. So they don't have definite volume and pressure. As volume is reduced for a given mass pressure increases. Also as temperature changes then at constant volume pressure changes considerably. Same way for a constant pressure temperature change brings a change in the volume. Moreover gasses do not have a free surface.
