What will cause a decrease in a gas pressure in closed container?

Lowering the temperature will cause a decrease in gas pressure in a closed container.


How can you relate temperature and volume with pressure?

if you have a closed bottle or can, etc. , of water and you heat it up to a high enough temperature, then pressure builds up, right? Well if the container is filled with water then the pressure will build up faster, causing the container to burst, but if the container is only filled maybe halfway, it will take a little longer for the pressure to build up enough to cause the container to burst.
