ANSWER: Well increasing the pressure of a reacting gas increases the number of reactant particles that are in the same volume, Therefore there will be a greater chance of particles colliding and increases in the frequency of collisions and so that increases the rate of reaction.

EXPLANATION: More pressure means more gas; more gas means more particles react.
