            gas depends on the number of collisions per unit time per unit area. ✓

            increase in the number of collisions per unit volume (area) ✓

            pressure. ✓

            uitoefen af van die aantal botsings per tydseenheid per eenheidsarea.

4.2.2 •     The intermolecular forces thus increase and the gas liquifies. ✓
      •     The volume becomes constant at extreme pressure. ✓

       •    Die intermolekulêre kragte neem dus toe en die gas word 'n vloeistof.
