What would cause the pressure in a sealed container of gas to increase?
temperature increase The pressure of a contained sample of gas can be increased by increasing its temperature, or by decreasing its volume, or by injecting additional mass into it.
What if gas is in a sealed container has a pressure of 50 k pa at 300 k what will the pressure be if the temperature rises 360 k?
60kpa
What happens when air is heated in a bottle?
if it's plastic or aluminum or glass and it's sealed it will explode because the air tries to escape. if the top is not on the air will escape easily,If it's in a plastic bottle the sides of the bottle gets pushed in
How does heating air affect its density and presure?
Hot air is less dense than cold air. Heating a sealed, rigid container of air will increase the pressure of the air in the container.
What will happen to the pressure when the temperature is decreased and the volume remains constant?
It stays the same.
Why does air pressure in a cars tire increase after a long drive?
As you drive, the friction of the road and the flexing of the tire increases the tires temperature. When you increase the temperature of a gas in a sealed container the pressure goes up.As you drive, the friction of the road and the flexing of the tire increases the tires temperature. When you increase the temperature of a gas in a sealed container the pressure goes up.

How does temperature effect the pressure of a gas?
If the volume of the container is not fixed, increasing the temperature will cause a gas to expand (increase the volume), and contract when cooled (decreasing the volume). This would be the case for a gas inside a piston, or inside a rubber balloon. If the volume is fixed, then increasing the temperature will increase the pressure, and decreasing the temperature will decrease the pressure. This would be the case for a gas in a closed solid container, like a canister or sealed metal box. Increasing pressure will cause the gas to contract (reducing the volume), and decreasing the pressure will cause the gas to expand (increasing the volume). Again, this is if the volume is not fixed. If the volume is fixed, then increasing the pressure will increase the temperature, and decreasing the pressure will decrease the temperature. These concepts are all determined by something called the Ideal Gas Law. To find out more about how this works, see the Related Questions links below this answer. Gases can also be changed to a liquid or solid if the temperature is too low or the pressure is too high. As an example steam changes to a liquid when it touches a cold object, and nitrogen gas can be converted to liquid nitrogen by compressing it to very high pressures.

60kpa
What would happen to the pressure of a gas sealed container if the volume increases and the temperature stays the same?
If the temperature increases, then the volume of the gases cannot stay the same. The pressure will keep building until it overcomes the integrity of the container its contained in and causes an explosion.
When a fixed sample of gas increases in volume what happens to the pressure and temperature?
The frequency of collisions is reduced
What is the pressure of water in a sealed tank?
This depends on the temperature.
Dry ice is sealed in a plastic bag as the temperature increases what does the amount of gas present in the bag do?
The amount of gas present in the bag will increase as the dry ice sublimates.
Which change results in an increase in gas pressure in a sealed and flexible container?
increase in volume
What happens to volume as pressure goes up?
According to the state equation pv=nrt p=pressure v=volume n=number of moles r=gas constant t=temperature. p and v are inversely proportional; as p increases, v decreases, as v increases, p decreases.
Why is it dangerous to heat a completely sealed container of a liquid or gas?
When the temperature increases gas and liquid are expending meaning that they are require more volume to occupy. Because containers are usually not expandable the increase of the temperate will cause some damage to the container eventually rising pressure due to the temperature increase will cause explosion which can be really dangerous for everything around.
