Any of the following: increasing the amount of gas; increasing the temperature; reducing the volume.
The temperature
Increasing the amount of a gas increases the temperature and pressure in a container
In a container the volume remain constant but the pressure increase.
increase in volume
Assuming the temperature stays constant and there is no leakage of gas, then if the container decreases in size then the pressure will increase.
Contact between the particles of a gas and walls of the container cause pressure in a closed container of gas.
it would change the pressure exerted by the gas in the container.
The temperature
If you increase the volume of the container, and not the gas itself, then the pressure decreases. If you increase the volume of the gas, and not the container, then the pressure increases.
The pressure would increase.
PV=nRT would suggest that the pressure would increase
Options: -- Force more gas into the same container. -- Force the same amount of gas into a smaller container. -- Heat the gas.
Options: -- Force more gas into the same container. -- Force the same amount of gas into a smaller container. -- Heat the gas.
The volume of the container is increased.
The pressure inside the container will increase. Pressure (P) is force(F) divided by the area(A) it hits on. If you decrease the area, you increase the pressure.
Heating a gas in a closed container would increase it's pressure. This would happen because when you heat the gas, the particles' kinetic energy increases, making them move faster, and more. They will hit the sides of the container and create pressure.
No, because the gas is in a rigid steel container, its volume cannot increase as the temperature increases (assuming the steel does not deform). Instead, the pressure of the gas inside the container will increase. Of course, if the pressure is high enough, the container will explode, lowering the pressure and causing the gas to expand.
