Best Answer

Heat causes particles to move faster, and the faster a praticle moves, the more energetic are its collisions, thereby exerting more pressure on the walls of any container that the particles are in, and enough pressure gives an explosion. This warning is necessary on aerosol cans because garbage is often thrown into incinerators, and that is not safe in the case of aerosol cans which will explode.
