Do particles bumping into the sides of a container cause pressure?

Yes, particles bumping into the sides of a container create pressure by exerting force on the walls. This pressure is the result of the particles delivering momentum to the walls as they collide with them.


What will cause a decrease in gas pressure in a closed containe?

A decrease in temperature or a decrease in the number of gas particles in the container will cause a decrease in gas pressure. Additionally, if some of the gas particles escape from the container, it will also lead to a decrease in pressure.


What is the pressure caused by the collisions of particles in a water vapor with the walls of a container?

The pressure caused by the collisions of particles in a water vapor with the walls of a container is known as vapor pressure. It represents the equilibrium pressure exerted by a vapor in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed phases (liquid or solid) in a closed system. At equilibrium, the rate of evaporation equals the rate of condensation, resulting in a constant pressure.


What does pressure have to do with speed of particles?

Basically, pressure is just a way to quantify the overall effect of many particles colliding with the side of a container. Each collision of particle and container transfers a force into the container. When particles have a higher speed they cause more acceleration and therefore more force into the container. Since pressure is the force per unit area, when the force increases, so does the pressure. So basically, the higher the particle speed, the higher the pressure.


What causes gas to have pressure?

The number and vibration of the molecules that make up the gas cause the pressure.


What would cause the pressure of a gas to increase?

An increase in temperature or a decrease in volume would call the pressure to increase. Apex- increasing the number of gas particles


What happens if you heat a closed container?

Eventually it will explode because the heat causes the gas particles inside the container to accelerate and thus, create pressure by colliding with each other and the sides of the container. This pressure --> boom.


In terms of kinetic molecular theory of gases how can increase in the temperature of a gas confined in a rigid container cause an increase in the pressure of gas?

An increase in temperature of a gas confined in a rigid container will cause an increase in the average kinetic energy of gas particles. This increase in kinetic energy leads to more frequent and forceful collisions between gas molecules and the walls of the container, resulting in an increase in pressure.


What will cause a decrease in a gas pressure in closed container?

Lowering the temperature will cause a decrease in gas pressure in a closed container.


What 3 factors affect the pressure of a gas in a closed container?

The mass of the gass, the volume of the container holding the gas, and the temperature of the gass. If you have a container of gas, the greater the mass of the gas, the more molecules there are in the container, and this leads to greater pressure. If you have a fixed mass of gas, changing the volume of the container holding the gas will cause the pressure to change. Increasing the volume of the container decreases the pressure. Decreasing the volume of the container increases the pressure. If you increase the temperature of a gas without changing its mass or volume, pressure increases.


Which of the matter has no definite shape or volume?

gas has no definite shape or volume. pressure is the force exerted over a unit of area. gases cause pressure by the particles colliding with the walls of the container.
