The particles of a GAS within a closed container will collide with the container walls, exerting a FORCE. The force per unit of AREA is known as what?

Pressure

Explanation:

One of the theories propounded by the Kinetic molecular theory, and which also provides an explanation of the several gas laws, is the statement that the gas molecules in a container, travel in straight lines and are in constant collision with themselves and the walls of the container, thus exerting force. This force is the pressure which is defined as the force per unit area.

There is no loss of energy in the collisions involving the gas molecules and that is why their movement can be described as elastic. The descriptions of the behavior of gas molecules in the Kinetic Molecular Theory, give rise to Charles law, Boyle's Law, Avogadro's Laws, Dalton's Law, and Amonton's Law.

The pressure

Explanation:

Molecules of gases are constantly in motion, colliding with the walls of their container. This constant collision impacts force on the walls of the container, which depends on the speed with which the molecules are moving. The speed with which these molecules travel depends on the average kinetic energy of the molecules, which is proportional to the temperature.

This force when exerted per unit area is the pressure the gases exert on the walls of the container.
