What is pressure?

• The amount of space an object contains

• The force exerted on an area

• The heaviness of an object

• The distance above sea level

What are particles?

• The distance above sea level

Hannah, David, and Elijah are conducting a science experiment. They take a balloon filled with air (a volume of gas) and squeeze it into a smaller space. What happens to the particles of gas inside the balloon?

• The number of particles increases

• The particles become smaller in size

• The particles move farther apart

• The particles are pushed closer together

What remains the same when you compress a gas?

• The size of the particles

• The number of particles

• The color of the gas

• The weight of the gas
