How does heating a gas in a rigid container change its pressure?

Heating a gas in a closed container would increase it's pressure. This would happen because when you heat the gas, the particles' kinetic energy increases, making them move faster, and more. They will hit the sides of the container and create pressure.

How does the pressure of an inclosed gas in a rigid container change when the gas is heated?
As you heat any matter you increase the kinetic energy the particles of that matter have. An increase in kinetic energy means that the particles move more and take up more space. This is manifested as an increase in pressure for gases in an enclosed container.
What happens to the pressure of a gas inside a rigid container if the temperature of the gas temperature of the gas decreases?
Cooling a pressurized container will cause the internal pressure to decrease.This works in reverse too. Depressurizing a pressurized container will lower the internal temperature (and by conduction, the temperature of the container itself). This is why ice often forms around propane gas cylinders after extended use.
What is a rigid container designed for a homburg or a porkpie?
A hatbox.
If you place a solid rubber ball into a box why doesn't the ball change its shape to fit the container?
- From Unit B page 28 in your science book. Because each particle is attached to several others, individual particles cannot move from one location to another, and the solid is rigid.
Is rigid a synonym for worse or is initially?
Neither rigid nor initially are synonyms for worse.

How does the pressure of an enclose gas in a rigid container change when the gas is heated?
It doesn't change
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.
Raising temperature of a gas fixed volume container will change?
it would change the pressure exerted by the gas in the container.
How do conditions change inside a rigid container when you use a pump to add gas to the container?
Rigid container implies the volume stays constant. The pressure will increase, and if the container is well insulated, the temperature may also increase.
What occurs when a rigid container of gas is heated?
Given that the container is "rigid" the size of the container holding the gas cannot change. Since the volume of the container remains constant, so too does the volume of the gas. The pressure however will increase.
Why will a container of gas explode when heated?
Increasing the number of moles of gas, decreasing the volume of the container, or iIncreasing the temperature could cause a rigid container of gas to explode.
When the temperature of a gas increases does the volume of the gas increase in a rigid steel container?
No, because the gas is in a rigid steel container, its volume cannot increase as the temperature increases (assuming the steel does not deform). Instead, the pressure of the gas inside the container will increase. Of course, if the pressure is high enough, the container will explode, lowering the pressure and causing the gas to expand.
Is the volume of a gas a result of gas particles pushing on the walls of a container true or false?
If the container is rigid, then its volume cannot change. However, if more gas particles are pushing on the walls, then it is the pressure that is changing.
In a rigid container as the temperature of a gas decreases the pressure of the gas will decrease.?
Yes, it is true.
Explain why increasing the temperature of a gas in a close the rigid container causes the pressure in the container to increase?
If temperature increases, either the volume or the pressure must increase. Since you have limited the volume by closing the container, pressure must increase.
In a rigid container as the temperature of a gas decreases the pressure of the gas will decrease true or false?
False
