Why will a container of gas explode when heated?

Increasing the number of moles of gas, decreasing the volume of the container, or iIncreasing the temperature could cause a rigid container of gas to explode.


If you cool a flask to -200degrise what would happen to the air?

I the flask was sealed, the air inside of the flask would take up less space and as a result, cause a drop in pressure inside the flask.

What is it about warm gas molecules that give them higher gas pressure than cool gas molecules?

Warmer molecules have more energy, and therefore move faster. Gas molecules will collide with solid objects, these collisions are what cause gas to have a pressure in the first place. Faster molecules mean more energetic collisions, hence a higher pressure on their surroundings. In the case of a sealed vessel, that means that when the temperature rises high enough, the molecules collide with it with enough force to rupture the vessel and burst it open.


What is the cause of gas pressure?

By the movement of the atoms/molecules.


Air pressure is affected by temperature.?

Yes, air pressure is affected by temperature.When the temperature is higher the air pressure lowers and the weight of the air is lower. When air is warmer the molecules sperate and there are less molecules that can cause pressure.

if the can is heated, sealed and placed in cold water, then the gas pressure inside the can will be greatly reduced by the cooling effect, and the atmospheric pressure outside will cause the can to crush.
