When a container decreases in size what will happen to an amount of gas in the container?
Assuming the temperature stays constant and there is no leakage of gas, then if the container decreases in size then the pressure will increase.
Where does water go when it reaches the surface?
they move around but they are together not like a gas this is how they get the shape of the container
Does a gas has both the shape and volume of its container?
A gas will expand to fill its container. This gives the gas the shape and volume of its container.
If you shrink a container containing gas what happens to the volume of the gas?
It compresses the gas and if it compresses too much, the container might not hold.
Can a gas change is shape to suite the container?
Yes it can See a gas it needs to change its shape in order to fit into a container or anything that it can be in for instance....If i had a square container and a cirlce container the gas is going to have to change its shape to fit in to the round container...if the gas starts out in the square container it has to change its shape into a circle to be able to be in the circle container

How is gas trapped?
Generally, gas is trapped in a container, or under a curved surface.
What is state in which a substance completely fills its container called?
Gas completely fills its container, liquid stays as a unit and fills the container with respect to gravity, and solids do not fill their containers
If the temperature of that gas that is in t he container is decreased what happens to its pressure?
If the volume stays the same, the pressure will decrease.
How do conditions change inside a rigid container when you use a pump to add gas to the container?
Rigid container implies the volume stays constant. The pressure will increase, and if the container is well insulated, the temperature may also increase.
Where does water go when it reaches the surface?
they move around but they are together not like a gas this is how they get the shape of the container
How will you explain the fact that gases exert pressure on all surfaces of the container?
Atoms in a gas move about randomly, and some will bounce against every surface of the container.
What keeps the particles of a liquid from spreading out to fill an entire container in the same way that gas particles do?
Surface tension.
What keeps the particles of a liquid from spreading out to fill an entire container in the same way gas particles do?
Surface tension.

Surface tension.
What happens when a gas cools?
they become liquids at a certain temperatures
True of False Boiling occurs when a liquid changes to a gas below its surface as well as on the surface?
False. If you watch water boil in a transparent container, you will see bubbles of gas form on the sides and bottom. They break loose and rise to the surface.
