Answer:

Esters present in them.

Explanation:

Esters are organic compounds which are considered to be derivative of carboxylic acids. They are formed from reaction of carboxylic acid with a corresponding alcohol.

The general formula of an ester is RCOOR'.

The fruits generally get their odors and taste due to present of these natural esters.

For example: An ester called Ethyl-2-methyl butyrate is a responsible for taste and odor of fruits like apple, orange, strawberry, etc.

The taste and odors in fruits are often the result of the ester components of the fruits. Esters are organic compounds produced from the reaction of alcohol and carboxylic acid. For example, bananas have esters called isomyl acetate, citrus fruits have octyl acetates familiar in oranges, lemon, tangerine, grapefruits, etc., and many others.

What is the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the density of gas particles in an area of increasing pressure? As air
Marina86 [1]

We need to know the relationship between atmospheric pressure and the density of gas particles in an area of increasing pressure.

The relationship is: As air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases.

For any gaseous substance, density of gas is directly proportional to pressure of gas.

This can be explained from idial gas edquation:

PV=nRT

PV=\frac{w}{M}RT [where, w= mass of substance, M=molar mass of substance]

PM=\frac{w}{V}RT

PM=dRT [where, d=density of thesubstance]

So, for a particular gaseous substance (whose molar mass is known), at particular temperature, pressure is directly related to density of gaseous substance.

Therefore, as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area increases.
