Compressed

Summary: When you blow up a bicycle tyre, you increase the gas pressure. Asyou blow more gas into a container, the gas becomes compressed. There are more molecules in the same space, so there are morecollisions. The pressure is bigger. You need a strong container tohold a compressed gas.
