Question

How large amounts of gases can be transported easily in cylinders? [2 Mark]

Open in App
Solution

Gas particles have high interparticle space between them. When external pressure is applied during compression, the gaseous particles move close to each other, thereby reducing the gaseous volume. [1 Mark] Because of this, large amounts of gases can be compressed and put into small cylinders that are transported easily. [1 Mark]
