Answer:

yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Sin the independent variable in the problem is the air particles and the pressure is the dependent, while the volume and temperature are constant, as the number of particles increases, the particles hit the edges of the container in the system faster, thus the pressure increases.

Answer:

Air pressure can be increased (or decreased) one of two ways. First, simply adding molecules to any particular container will increase the pressure. A larger number of molecules in any particular container will increase the number of collisions with the container's boundary which is observed as an increase in pressure.
