Question

describe boyle's law in terms of the kinetic model

Marilyn Bob-Manuel 3ekt · Accepted Answer

when the container of a fixed mass of gas at a constant temperature is compressed, the volume of gas decreases so the particles have less space to move around in. Therefore they collide with the walls of container more often and exrt more  force per unit area, and so pressure increases.
