If the lid was on the container all you would have to do is take the lid off so that the gas can escape. In other words, when the gas escapes, the amount of pressure is reduced (decreased).
Certainly true if the gas pressure inside was originally higher than atmospheric pressure. Another way would be to cool it.

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 must you know to calculate pressure?
Area of the container and the mass of the gas or liquid inside.
How gas exerts pressure on the side of its container?
The molecules of the gas are in constant motion and their collisions with the sides of the container exerts a force which is felt as pressure.
If the volume of a scuba tank filled with air remains constant and its temperature decreases what happens to its pressure?
It doesn't change- Apex
What will happen to gas pressure when the volume is decreased?
When the temperature of a gas is increased at a constant pressure, its volume increases. When the temperature of a gas is devreased at constnt pressure, its volume decreases.
When a container of gas is cooled what happens to the gas inside?
Gas pressure decreases when cooling down a closed container.
When a sample of gas is cooled in a closed container the pressure inside the container?
increases......
What happens to the pressure of a gas inside of a container if the temperature of the gas decreases?
The pressure of the gas would also decrease.
What happens to the pressure of a gas inside a contianer ifthe temperature of the gas decreases?
from the gas laws and Charles 2nd law, it can be concluded that pressure is directly proportional to temperature..hence if the temp decreases; pressure also decreases as the kinetic energy of the molecules decreases; the collisions decrease hence pressure of the molecules inside the container decrease.
Why does a CO2 cylinder feel cold after it's launched?
As the gas quickly leaves the container, the pressure and the amount of gas inside decreases. With less gas, the heat decreases.
What is the volume of a gas increases its pressure decreases mean?
It means that if the gas is allowed to expand into a larger volume, the pressure - inside the container that contains the gas - will be less.
What happens to the pressure of the gas in the container?
The pressure increases if the container gets smaller or the gas heats up. The pressure decreases if the container gets bigger or the gas cools off.
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.
When a container decreases in size what will happen to an amount of gas in the container?
Assuming the temperature stays constant and there is no leakage of gas, then if the container decreases in size then the pressure will increase.
How does the pressure of a gas change if you increase volume?
If you increase the volume of the container, and not the gas itself, then the pressure decreases. If you increase the volume of the gas, and not the container, then the pressure increases.
In a rigid container as the temperature of a gas decreases the pressure of the gas will decrease.?
Yes, it is true.
What is the pressure inside of a container when nitrogen gas is added?
The pressure inside of a container when nitrogen gas is added depends on:what the pressure was before the gas was addedhow big the container ishow much nitrogen gas is addedthe temperature of the gas before it is addedthe temperature of the container and its contents
