It would increase.
It would be halved.
It would stay the same
It would slightly decrease

The pressure of the gas would increase.

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas formulae we can evaluate this fact;

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

We can assume that the volume is reduced by half (the T₁ and T₂ will cancel out because they remain constant);

P₁V₁ = P₂ * 0.5V₁

P₁V₁/0.5V₁ = P₂

P₁/0.5 = P₂

You can observe that the pressure will also increase – diving a number by a fraction or decimal number increases the resultant value. In this case, the pressure will increase by 2 fold

the density(ratio between mass and volume as m/v) decreases from top to bottom in periodic table group as the size increases and nuclear charge decreases. but in periods density increases from left to right as atom size decreases and nuclear charge increases.

in chemistry, adhesion and cohesion are attractive forces that exist between molecules. they hold the molecules together from each other. they are different in that adhesive force exists between molecules of different substance while cohesive force happens between molecules of same substance.

adhesion between water and glass causes water molecules at the edge of water and glass interface to climb up the wall in a narrow glass tube. this is called capillary action. cohesion is what gives glass its shape and causes water to form a droplet.
