No, any container that is closed will develop pressure when heated. The water to steam ratio is ~1603 : 1. This means that 1 cubic centimeter of water expands to about 1603 cubic centimeters of steam. Any container that is tightly closed won't be if it is heated enough as that steam WILL find a way to escape often explosively. It is best to leave a small opening when heating anything.

Why must a gas be kept in a closed containers?

A gas must be kept in closed containers to prevent it from escaping into the atmosphere, which can lead to loss of the substance and potentially create hazardous conditions. Additionally, containing the gas allows for the maintenance of pressure and temperature, which are crucial for many chemical reactions and processes. Closed containers also help to minimize contamination and ensure safety by preventing the interaction of the gas with other substances.
