Becuase the particles in air and the particles in gas clash into each other and sometimes they expand or/and squeeze/entangle together to create pressure.

How the motions of gas particles are related to the pressure by the gas?
is motions of gas particles are related to the pressure exerted by the gas
What will increase the volume of gas?
change the pressure and/or the temperature of the gas
What physically causes gas pressure and how can you increase the pressure of gas?
Gas pressure is caused by the gas molecules moving back and forth.You can increase the gas pressure by putting gas into a container with hard walls, i.e. not flexible as in a balloon, and doing one or more of the following:Increasing the amount of gas (pumping gas in)Increasing the temperatureReducing the volume (as in a piston)For more details, read about the "ideal gas law".
What happens to the pressure of the gas in the container?
The pressure increases if the container gets smaller or the gas heats up. The pressure decreases if the container gets bigger or the gas cools off.
How does reducing the volume of gas affect its pressure if the temperature of the gas and the number of particles are constant?
The pressure is now higher.
How are volcaoes formed?
they are made by rocks and gas pressure and gas
Collisions of helium atoms with the walls of a closed container cause what?
Gas Pressure
Can gas be a pressure?
It is unclear what you are asking. A contained gas will always exert pressure, but it would be incorrect to state that gas is pressure.
What is the term that is used for the pressure of each gas in a mixture of gases?
The pressure of each gas in a mixture is called the partial pressure of that gas.
What is the pressure of gas at ATP?
The pressure of gas has nothing to with ATP. However, the pressure of gas at STP, or Standard Temperature Pressure is 0 degrees Celsius and pressure is 1 ATM.
How the motions of gas particles are related to the pressure by the gas?
is motions of gas particles are related to the pressure exerted by the gas
What happens to the pressure of gas if the temperature of the gas is increased?
The pressure of a gas increases with an increase in temperature.
What happens to the pressure of the gas if the temperature of the gas is increased?
The pressure of a gas increases with an increase in temperature.
How does the decreasing the gas volume affect the pressure of a gas?
The pressure increase.
What happens to pressure when gas expands?
If the gas is contained at a constant volume, the pressure increases. If the gas is not contained, the pressure remains the same or drops.
How does pressure help in liquefaction of a gas?
Once pressure reaches vapor pressure, gas will liquify at that temperature.
What is the partial pressure of a gas in a mixture of gas?
The pressure exerted by one gas in a mixture (apex)
