Gas particles move freely and randomly in a container, colliding with each other and the container walls. They exert pressure on the walls of the container due to these collisions. The particles have high kinetic energy and tend to fill the available space evenly.

What between the particles of a gas and the walls of the container cause pressure In a close container of gas?

Contact between the particles of a gas and walls of the container cause pressure in a closed container of gas.


How is the gas pressure produced in a closed closed container of gas?

the particles of gas bouncing into the walls of the container.


Do particles in a gas fill the bottom of their containers regardless of the shape or volume of the container?

Yes, particles in a gas will fill the available space of their container and take on the shape of the container. The volume of the container doesn't affect this behavior as the particles will distribute evenly throughout the space.


What will happen to the particles of a gas if the gas is transferred from a small container to a much larger container?

The particles will just move away from each other, to fill the larger container.

What happens when heat is added to gas in a sealed container?

When heat is added to gas in a sealed container, the temperature of the gas increases, causing the gas particles to move faster and collide more frequently with the container walls. This leads to an increase in pressure inside the container due to the increased force exerted by the gas particles on the walls.


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.


The greater the speed gas particles in a container the?

The greater the speed of gas particles in a container, the higher the overall average temperature and kinetic energy of the gas particles. And if volume was held constant, higher the pressure.


Explain what happens to a gas when it is put into a container?

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.


Why do gas particles collide with the walls of their container?

Pressure.


What happens to the speed of gas when heated?

The speed of the gas particles will increase as they are heated. That is why the pressure in a container increases. The particles are hitting the walls of the container with more force as they are heated.
