This is possible because gases have the physical property of elasticity, due to the fact that there are relatively large spaces between the molecules of gases.

What type of fluid that can be squeezed into a smaller container?
No liquid can be made smaller, liquids have the property of a definite volume (size), this cant be changed.
What happens to the pressure of the gas in the container?
The pressure increases if the container gets smaller or the gas heats up. The pressure decreases if the container gets bigger or the gas cools off.
What would increase the pressure of gas?
Options: -- Force more gas into the same container. -- Force the same amount of gas into a smaller container. -- Heat the gas.

Why can a gas be put into a container which has a smaller or larger volume than the gas?
Because the gas hasn't not a form and can be compressed or expanded.
Does increaseing the volume of a container increase the pressure of gas in a closed container?
Consider your bicycle pump. When we decrease the volume in the pump by pushing the plunger, the volume of the gas (air) gets smaller.
Do gases exert pressure?
Yes. Any sample of gas in a closed container will exert pressure on the container, as long as the temperature of the gas is above absolute zero. You can force the gas into a smaller volume by shrinking the container, but that action raises the temperature and pressure of the gas.
What is the word to reduce the volume of gas so that it can fit into a smaller container?
The word you're looking for is..... 'compress'
Puting gas into a smaller container affect its density?
If you don't change the amount of gas, but you just stuff itinto a smaller container, then the density must increase.Remember the definition of density:Density = mass/volume .Since the volume in the smaller container is less, the value ofthat fraction must be greater ==> greater density.
Is lemon juice in container the same as from a lemon?
Yes it is, Just squeezed lemons.
What happens to pressure of gas when you put it in a smaller container?
PV=nRT would suggest that the pressure would increase
