The gas particles will spread out to encompass the entire volume of the container. The particles are constantly in motion and will run into the walls of the container creating pressure (basically). If heated, the particles will move faster, and slower if cooled.

What happens when you put a gas in a container?

When a gas is put in a container, it expands to fill the available space of the container, taking the shape of the container. The gas particles move freely within the container, colliding with each other and the walls of the container. The pressure inside the container increases as the gas particles exert force on the walls.


What happens to pressure of gas when you put it in a smaller container?

When you put gas in a smaller container, the gas particles have less space to move around, leading to more frequent collisions with the container walls. This increases the pressure of the gas inside the container.


What happens when gas is put in a container?

When gas is put into a container, it expands to fill the available space evenly. The pressure of the gas molecules against the walls of the container increases until it reaches equilibrium. The volume, temperature, and pressure of the gas will determine its behavior in the container.


Can you put gas in a diesel gas can?

You can put petrol (UK spelling) into a diesel container (can) provided the container is empty. It is best not to, though, in case you later empty the petrol into a diesel vehicle's tank by mistake - which could happen if the container happens to be marked diesel on the outside of the container.


How does a gas respond when put into a container?

Explain how you can find the volume of helium gas in a one liter tank?

You don't have to find the volume ! If gas is put into a closed container, it fills it. The volume of gas in a one liter tank is one liter.


What happens if you put heated liquid in a closed container?

what happens is that the heat gets trapped in the container and it turns foggy


What do you do when your running out of gas?

Go to a nearby gas station and add gas, or if you cant move you can use a gas container and just put the gasoline in the container and pay normally telling the cashier that you have the gasoline in the container.


Does a gas fill any container which it is put in?

Yes, gas will uniformly fill any container it is put in to fill the available space. The gas molecules will spread out to evenly fill the space they are contained in.


Why does gas fill any container you put it in?

Gas has no fixed volume or shape, therefore using diffusion to fill the empty spaces and filling the container.
