Pressure in a constant volume (container) is directly proportinal to the number of moles and to the absolute temperature (in K)
p :=: n * T with ':=:' meaning 'proportianal to' (not: equal to!)
The number of collision is related to and determined by the pressure-value only! (pressure is the result ofcollisions only)

How does the kinetic theory explain the fact that the pressure of a gas in a sealed container remains constant indefinitely provided the volume and temperature are kept constant?
because according to kinetic theory number of collisions exert force per unit area(pressure) so when the temperature is constant along with volume then the same number of collisions are taking place per unit time thats why pressure remains constant....
Is the torque increased decreased or constant on a universal joint?
is the torque increased decreased or constant
Under constant pressure the volume of a gas and its kelvin temperature are?
Directly proportional.Related Information:According to the Ideal Gas Law (PV=nRT) if the Pressure P is held constant and the Temperature is increased, the Volume will also increase.
Does the temperature of a gas decrease when the volume increases?
Yes, if the gas is not in a closed container it will expand when the temperature is increased. If it is in a closed container, it cannot expand, so the pressure inside the container will increase.
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.
How gas exerts pressure on the side of its container?
The molecules of the gas are in constant motion and their collisions with the sides of the container exerts a force which is felt as pressure.
What does the constant collision of gas molecules against the inside walls of a container produce A Temperature Bdensity C Pressure Ddiffusion?
The constant collision of gas molecules against the inside walls of a container produces pressure which is directly proportional to the number of collisions.

When gas in a container expand to twice its volume at constant temperature the gas pressure does what?
The pressure increases. Hopefully, the container is strong enough to withstand the increased pressure. If there is a weakness in the container, gas will escape as a leak.
Is the torque increased decreased or constant on a universal joint?
is the torque increased decreased or constant
If material is heated and expands the density of the material will?
This relies on 3 things. The Pressure, volume and temperature of a Gas is all related. If the pressure is kept the same and temperature increased. The Volume (of the container) must be increased. If the Volume (of the container) is kept constant and temperature is increased the Pressure will increase. A rough idea of what will happen can be worked out by, pV=cT Where p is the pressure, V is the volume of the container, c is a constant, T is the temperature.
What happens to the volume of a liquid when it is poured from a small container into a large container?
The volume of an object is determined by the product of the surface area and the height of the object. Hence if the big container has a bigger height then the volume would certainly be greater. However, when talking about the volume of the liquid, it will be constant. This is because, although the height of the liquid will be reduced by putting it into a bigger container, the surface area is increased. Therefore, it will be constant. ! xx

Directly proportional.Related Information:According to the Ideal Gas Law (PV=nRT) if the Pressure P is held constant and the Temperature is increased, the Volume will also increase.
Is the speed in a crown and pinion increased decreased or constant?
increased
Is buoyancy constant irrespective of shape of container?
No
How does gas cause pressure?
Any gas is composed of atoms (if it's an elemental gas, like neon or argon), diatomic molecules (if it's one of the 5 diatomic gases: hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, chlorine), or molecules (if it's a compound like carbon dioxide.) These particles are in constant motion, filling the container they're in evenly, but also colliding randomly against the walls of the container. These collisions result in a force being exerted on the container walls which translates as pressure. Increasing the kinetic energy of the gas will increase the motion and therefore the collisions, which means if you heat the gas, the collisions increase and the pressure goes up. This is how a hot air balloon rises when the pilot fires the burner.
What causes a gas to exert pressure when confined in a container?
Assuming constant amount of gas and temperature, pressure will increase as volume decreases. Conversely, pressure will decrease as volume increases. If you squeeze on a filled balloon, the volume decreases. The pressure of the air on each square inch of the balloon increases, which causes it to eventually pop if the pressure gets too high. Assuming constant amount of gas, a temperature change will already change the volume of the gas. As temperature rises, the gas expands, causing more pressure to be exerted on the balloon. Assuming constant temperature, adding more gas also increases the volume and thus increases the pressure.
