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 is true of all particles of a gas encloosed within a container?
All gas particles are in constant random motion and collide with each other and the walls of the container. They have negligible volume compared to the volume of the container and exert pressure on the walls of the container due to their collisions. The average kinetic energy of the gas particles is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas.
What sequence describes the result of increasing the number of gas particles in a container?
Increasing the number of gas particles in a container generally leads to an increase in pressure, provided the temperature and volume remain constant, according to the ideal gas law (PV = nRT). As more particles are added, they collide more frequently with the walls of the container, resulting in higher pressure. If the volume is allowed to change, the system may adjust to maintain equilibrium, potentially leading to an increase in volume instead of pressure.
Why do gases take the volume and shape of their container while liquids take the shape of their container but have a fixed volume?
Gases take the volume and shape of their container because their particles are widely spaced and move freely, allowing them to fill any available space. In contrast, liquids have closely packed particles that can slide past each other, giving them a definite volume but allowing them to conform to the shape of their container. This distinction arises from the differences in intermolecular forces and the kinetic energy of the particles in each state of matter.
State where particles take the shape of a container and do not have a definite volume?
Answer:Gas (and maybe plasma?) takes the shape of a container, not having a definite volume like fluid has.Like gas, plasma does not have a definite shape or a definite volume unless enclosed in a container.Unlike gas, plasma may form structures such as filaments, beams and double layers in the influence of a magnetic field.

Does increaseing the volume of a container increase the pressure of gas in a closed container?
Consider your bicycle pump. When we decrease the volume in the pump by pushing the plunger, the volume of the gas (air) gets smaller.

What is the matter that takes the shape but not its volume of its container?
The matter that takes the shape but not the volume of its container is a gas. Gases have particles that are far apart and move freely, allowing them to fill the shape of their container but not have a fixed volume.
How can you determine the volume of a regularly shaped solid?
Put solid in a container ; fill container with water to a known container volume; take object out of container and read the remaining volume. subtract this remaining volumefrom the known volume. This result is the volume of the regular or irregular shaped solid.
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.
What will always take the shape and volume of its container?
A gas will always take the shape and volume of its container. Gas particles are free to move around and fill the space they are in.
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.
What would cause the pressure of a gas to increase?
An increase in temperature or a decrease in volume would call the pressure to increase. Apex- increasing the number of gas particles
How does change in temperature affect the volume of a gas?
An increase in temperature generally causes the volume of a gas to expand or increase, as the gas particles gain kinetic energy and move more rapidly, pushing against the walls of the container. Conversely, a decrease in temperature typically leads to a decrease in volume, as the gas particles lose kinetic energy and move more slowly, resulting in less pressure on the container walls.
