When a gas collides with the surface of a container, it exerts a force on that surface, creating pressure. This pressure results from the momentum transfer of gas molecules as they strike the container walls. The frequency and energy of these collisions depend on the gas's temperature and the number of gas molecules present. Overall, the interactions between gas molecules and the container surface are fundamental to understanding gas behavior in enclosed spaces.
When you tip a container filled with gas, the surface of the gas does not remain level like a liquid would. Instead, the gas will expand to fill the available space within the container, and its surface will adjust based on the orientation of the container. However, due to the nature of gases, the concept of a "surface" is less defined compared to liquids, as gases do not have a fixed surface level.
NO
A gas will fill it's container freely, and evenly space itself throughout the container. Imagine an aerosol can of disinfectant sprayed into a room at one corner. The gas will eventually spread itself across the room evenly.
Gas exerts pressure on the walls of a container due to the collisions of gas molecules with the container's surface. These molecules are in constant motion, and when they collide with the walls, they transfer momentum, creating force. The cumulative effect of many such collisions results in a measurable pressure exerted on the container walls. This pressure increases with more gas molecules or higher temperatures, as both factors lead to more frequent and forceful collisions.
Yes, a gas will take the shape and volume of its container as it fills the space available to it. Gas molecules are free to move and expand so they will evenly distribute themselves to fit the 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.

Generally, gas is trapped in a container, or under a curved surface.
When filling a balloon with gas, the pressure increases as more gas particles collide with the inner surface of the balloon. In a closed container, the gas exerts pressure on the walls of the container due to collisions with the surface. In a tire, the pressure is a result of gas particles colliding with the inner walls of the tire.
NO
It expands and spreads out, no matter is created.
Atoms in a gas move about randomly, and some will bounce against every surface of the container.
the collection of a gas over water involves a container in which the reaction takes place and a gas collection container filled with water and inverted in a reservoir of water. ...As the gas is created, it will displace water from the bottle. ...the container must be the sum of the pressures of the gas

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