When a gas is heated in a container the pressure increases explain why using the particle theory of matter?

According to Charles law, when pressure is kept constant,the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.The given mass of gas starts to rise with the rise in temperature and reduces with reduction in temperature.

Using the kinetic theory explain why the pressure of a gas increases when the temperature increases?
When the temperature of a gas increases, the Kinetic Energy of the particles increases. This means that they move faster and apply a greater force when they collide with the walls of the container. As pressure is the force per unit area on the container, the pressure increases. This is Gay-Lussac's "Pressure Temperature" Law: "P = kT".
Explain how the attractive forces between the particles in a liquid and the equilibrium vapor pressure of that liquid related?
The weaker the intermolecular forces, the easier the liquid evaporates. Higher vapor pressure the faster it evaporates. Thus, the weaker the attractive forces, the higher the vapor pressure and vice versa.
A truck's tires have the correct air pressure at room temperature about 20c explain why a tire is more likey to explode when the truck is driven in hot weather than in cold weather?
As a tire goes round and round heat builds up inside the heat expands the air inside the tire. On a normal day that he can dissipate but as the temperature on the outside increases is more difficult for the heat (energy) to leave the inside of the tire. As the temperature increases the pressure inside the tire also increases. It is that pressure that can cause the tire to explode.
Explain how to use a balance to find mass?
find the mass of the container you will be using to measure something. The fill the container with ur substance. Measure it. Then subtract the mass of the container from the total mass
What does a compound pressure gauge measure?
i need to explain what an absolute pressure gauge measures
Explain why increasing the temperature of a gas in closed rigid container causes the pressure in the container to increase?
Because the pressure increases The real answer is: Charles's Law. He found that if you increase the temperature of a constant pressure the volume increases also.

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.
What effect on air pressure with altitude explain briefly?
As altitude increases, air pressure decreases. As altitude decreases, air pressure increases.
What explain what happenswhen force is applied to a confined fluid?
The pressure in the confinement increases.
Explain why vapor pressure increases as temperature increases?
Vapor pressure increases as temperatures increase because water will evaporate in hot weather. This evaporation rises increasing the vapor pressure. This is why many areas have high humidity in the summer.
If the temperature remains constant what will happen to the pressure of a gas if you decrease the volume of the container that holds the gas Explain?
The pressure of the gas would rise. Explain? OK, Blow up a balloon and tie the end. Decrease volume of the container (step on balloon). Balloon explodes (Pressure rose)
Explain how air pressure is related to temperature?
Under controlled situations , as the temperature increases the air pressure decreases.:)
What is the relationship between liquid pressure and depth of a liquid?
As the depth of the fluid increases, the pressure increases. To explain this mathematicaly you consider the Sg of the fluid times the height of the column multiplied by gravity will give you the pressure at the base of the column
How will you explain the fact that gases exert pressure on all surfaces of the container?
Atoms in a gas move about randomly, and some will bounce against every surface of the container.
Explain what hppens to air pressure as you move away from the earths surface?
Pressure increases as you get closer to earth.
Explain how temperature pressure particle size agitation effect solubility?
The more a solution is agitated, the faster the rate of the solution The smaller the particle size, the faster it will dissolve The higher the temperature, the faster rate of dissolving
