Yes. Any sample of gas in a closed container will exert pressure on the container, as long as the temperature of the gas is above absolute zero. You can force the gas into a smaller volume by shrinking the container, but that action raises the temperature and pressure of the gas.
Yes, the pressure exerted by different gases can be different, as it depends on factors such as the number of gas molecules, temperature, and volume. However, if the gases are in the same container at the same temperature, they will exert the same pressure.
Gases in Earth's atmosphere exert pressure on everything due to their weight and the force of gravity. This atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude, meaning that it's higher at sea level and decreases as you go higher up. Atmospheric pressure is essential for sustaining life on Earth.
Gases have no fixed shape or volume, allowing their molecules to move freely and fill the entire space available to them. As a result, gas molecules collide with the walls of their container in all directions, exerting pressure uniformly in all directions. In contrast, solids and liquids have fixed shapes and volumes and thus exert pressure in a more localized manner.
The pressure of each gas in a mixture is called the partial pressure of that gas.
Gases have no fixed shape or volume. They expand to fill the container they are in. They are compressible. Gases have low density compared to liquids and solids. They exert pressure on the walls of their container. Gases are highly mobile and can diffuse rapidly.

Liquids such as water and gases such as air exert a buoyant force on objects placed in them. This force is a result of the pressure difference between the top and bottom of the object, pushing it upward.
Gases exert equal pressure in all directions because gas particles are in constant random motion, colliding with each other and the walls of the container. These collisions result in pressure that is evenly distributed in all directions within the container due to the kinetic energy of the gas particles.
Yes, both liquids and gases exert a buoyant force on objects submerged or immersed in them. This force is a result of the pressure difference at various depths in the fluid medium, which ultimately supports the object's weight.
True. Both liquids and gases exert a buoyant force on objects placed in them due to the difference in pressure at different depths. This force is what causes objects to float or sink in a fluid.
Pressure
Gases exert pressure by colliding with the walls of their container due to the random motion of their molecules. This constant bombardment of the container walls creates pressure, which is a measure of the force per unit area exerted by the gas molecules.
The partial pressure is the pressure exerted by just one gas in the mixture.
False

As a result, gas molecules collide with the walls of their container in all directions, exerting pressure uniformly in all directions.
