Explain what happens to a gas when it is put into a container?

The gas particles will spread out to encompass the entire volume of the container. The particles are constantly in motion and will run into the walls of the container creating pressure (basically). If heated, the particles will move faster, and slower if cooled.

How does a gas respond when put into a container?

What happens to pressure of gas when you put it in a smaller container?
PV=nRT would suggest that the pressure would increase
What happens to a gas when it is put into a container?
the gas starts to bubble up (boil) and when you put cold gases in it it startes to cool down the gas starts to bubble up (boil) and when you put cold gases in it it startes to cool down
Explain how you can find the volume of helium gas in a one liter tank?
You don't have to find the volume ! If gas is put into a closed container, it fills it. The volume of gas in a one liter tank is one liter.

what happens is that the heat gets trapped in the container and it turns foggy
What do you do when your running out of gas?
Go to a nearby gas station and add gas, or if you cant move you can use a gas container and just put the gasoline in the container and pay normally telling the cashier that you have the gasoline in the container.
What happens to the pressure of a gas if the volume of its container was increased?
Assuming you haven't put any more gas in the container, the pressure will go down. Usually, the reason the volume of the container gets larger is that you put more gas in the container and the gas pressure in the container seeks to equalize with the pressure outside it.
If you put diesel and unleaded gas in a container will they separate and the gas float to the top?
Yes
Why does gas fill any container you put it in?
Gas has no fixed volume or shape, therefore using diffusion to fill the empty spaces and filling the container.
