The kinetic theory explains the ability of gases to be forced or squeezed into smaller volumes. what is this ability called?

The mentioned tendency of the gases is known as compressibility.

Explanation:

The gases exhibit higher compressibility as the molecules of the gases are packed very very loosely, and there is an ample amount of space present in between the molecules. Therefore, by compressing the gases, the molecules of gases will move very close to each other and as its intermolecular space is more in comparison to liquid and solid, it can be compressed more than both. Thus, gases possess the tendency to get squeezed or forces into smaller volumes.

every chemical equation adheres to the law of conservation of mass, which states that matter cannot be created or destroyed. therefore, there must be the same number of atoms of each element on each side of a chemical equation.

there are two significant figures.
