The diagrams show gases that are stored in two separate but similar containers.If both gases are at the same temperature, which one has the greater pressure?

Question illustration
A
gas 1 because the particles are moving much faster
B
gas 1 because it has fewer particles that are close together
C
gas 2 because it has more particles that are colliding
