Contact between the particles of a gas and walls of the container cause pressure in a closed container of gas.
Gas Pressure
Gas pressure
In a closed container, the gas pressure means the gas atom exerts on the wall of the container. If someone add volume of the gas to the container, it gives more chance for it to collide to the wall. on the other hand, if you heat the container(also the gas inside), it gives the gas atoms energy so it runs faster, it speeds up the chance of gas exert on the wall. it can also be explained as, in a period of time, more gas atoms have exerted to the wall of container.
No. Raising the temperature of the particles will cause their velocity to increase, which in turn causes them to collide with each other/the container more often and with more force.

What causes the pressure exerted by gas molecules on their container? idk

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.
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.
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.
The gas molecules are moving at speeds of hundreds of metres per second. When they strike the vessel, they are accelerated in the opposite direction. The pressure on the vessel is the force exerted to cause that acceleration.

Increase in temperature cause the particles to move faster, which in turn would increase the number of collisions. If the volume did not change and the temperature increased, the pressure would also increase.
