The pressure of the gas is expected to increase in accordance to Boyle's law.
<h3>What is Boyle's law?</h3>
Boyle's law states that, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature.
By implication, when the piston is lowered and the volume of the gas is decreased, the pressure of the gas is expected to increase in accordance to Boyle's law.

Allotropes are elements on the periodic table that have more than one crystalline form . There are three forms of the element carbon : Diamond, Graphite, and Fullerenes. Isotopes are atoms of the same element with the same atomic number but have a different mass number.
1 mL = 1 cm³
D = m / V
0.7857 = m / 17.16
m = 0.7857 x 17.16
m = 13.482 g
Answer:
The particles move faster and are far apart
Explanation:
A substance may exist in three states of matter; solid, liquid and gas.
In the solid state, there is very strong intermolecular forces between the particles of the substance. They can only vibrate or rotate about their mean positions but can not translate.
In the liquid state, the particles of the substance have a greater degree of freedom than in the solid. The magnitude of intermolecular forces is lower than in solids, the molecules can move at low speeds.
In a gas, the molecules are separated from each other with negligible intermolecular interaction hence they move at very high speed.
Therefore, for the water gas particles in the air above the cup; the particles move faster and are far apart.
