Does a gas has both the shape and volume of its container?
A gas will expand to fill its container. This gives the gas the shape and volume of its container.
If you have a gas in a closed container what would happen?
depends on the type of gas and container;) In general, every gas will slowly come out of the container due to diffusion processes; sometimes gases can chemically react with container material. At last, if gas pressure is too high, the container can just blow up.
If you shrink a container containing gas what happens to the volume of the gas?
It compresses the gas and if it compresses too much, the container might not hold.
Can a gas change is shape to suite the container?
Yes it can See a gas it needs to change its shape in order to fit into a container or anything that it can be in for instance....If i had a square container and a cirlce container the gas is going to have to change its shape to fit in to the round container...if the gas starts out in the square container it has to change its shape into a circle to be able to be in the circle container
What is the matter in a gas state will out to fill its container?
it will move randomly and quickly to fill the empty space in the container..that's how the matter in a gas do to fill the container.. P/s: gas is matter that has mass and occupied space.
Why does gas fill any container you put it in?
Gas has no fixed volume or shape, therefore using diffusion to fill the empty spaces and filling the container.
When you decrease the size of the container that the gas is in the gas will exert more pressure on the container what law or property is this?
This is part of Boyle's Law.
What determines the shape and volume of a a gas inside a container?
The shape of the containerA property of a gas is that it expands to fill the shape and volume of a container. An exception may be the case where there is more than one gas and the heavier gasses will tend to settle to the bottom of the container.
What will the gas do if you put a gas into a container with a top?
It's particles will spread apart filling all the spaces available...... A gas has neither a definite shape or volume..... :) -Stephanie F.

What property is effected by the number of times particles of gas hit the inside of a container?
pressure
Is pressure of a gas an extensive property in a closed container of constant volume?
Yes. It depends on the amount of gas present (as well as the temperature of the gas.)
How do you clean a container by filling with water and shaking?
Rather than filling the container completely with water then emptying it, filling it 1/3 full, shaking it and emptying it 3 times will result in a cleaner container.
Does gas completely fill its container?
Gasses do not have a fixed shape or volume, as the particles are not connected to one another. So they spread out, and move away from each other, completely filling its container.

What causes the pressure in a balloon?
The elastic property of the balloon. The balloon stretches when inflated, and squeezes the gas filling the balloon.
Does gas have definite shape?
No, a gas expands to fill the container it is in.
