Answer to Question 1

b

Answer to Question 2

Pressure is a measure of the force that matter exerts on its surface area (i.e. in2). Density is a measure of the amount of matter in a given volume (i.e. cm3). A very low-density gas and a very high-density gas might have the same pressure if they have different temperatures.
