Do gases exert pressure?
Yes. Any sample of gas in a closed container will exert pressure on the container, as long as the temperature of the gas is above absolute zero. You can force the gas into a smaller volume by shrinking the container, but that action raises the temperature and pressure of the gas.
Would a sample of gas in a closed container in space exert pressure on the sides of the container if the gas was kept at standard temperature and pressure?
Even if the pressure inside a container is equal to the pressure outside a container, there is still pressure. It's like pushing a friend one way while he pushes you back. Neither of you may be moving, but you're still pushing. The sample of gas would exert exactly one atmosphere of pressure (or 100 kPa) on the container. The question then becomes whether the container can withstand that pressure.
What effect does temperature have on gas pressure in a closed container?
In a closed container, the gas pressure means the gas atom exerts on the wall of the container. If someone add volume of the gas to the container, it gives more chance for it to collide to the wall. on the other hand, if you heat the container(also the gas inside), it gives the gas atoms energy so it runs faster, it speeds up the chance of gas exert on the wall. it can also be explained as, in a period of time, more gas atoms have exerted to the wall of container.
How do you explain the increase in pressure in a closed system when temperature is increased?
Since the temperature is increased, the molecules start moving to and fro... which tends increase in speed of the molecule.. such that the increase in temperature is directly proportional to the speed of the molecules by which the pressure will also increase...
How do the particles of gas react in a container?
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.
When you exert force on a fluid in a closed container does the pressure increase decrease or remain constant?
When force is exerted on a fluid in a closed container, the pressure will increase. This is because pressure is directly proportional to the force applied to a fluid.
Do gases exert pressure?
Yes. Any sample of gas in a closed container will exert pressure on the container, as long as the temperature of the gas is above absolute zero. You can force the gas into a smaller volume by shrinking the container, but that action raises the temperature and pressure of the gas.

Why liquids exert pressure on the walls of a container?
To expand
What will cause a a decrease in gas pressure in a closed container?
A decrease in temperature will cause a decrease in gas pressure in a closed container as the gas molecules will have less kinetic energy, resulting in less frequent collisions with the container walls. Alternatively, removing some of the gas from the container will also lower the gas pressure as there are fewer gas molecules present to exert pressure on the walls.
Why are you not crushed under atmospheric pressure?
The fluids in your body exert pressure and prevent the atmospheric pressure from closing in. Fluids exert pressure on a container the particles collide with each other and the sides of the container.
How do fluids exert pressure on a container?
Fluids exert pressure on a container due to the weight of the fluid above it pushing down. This pressure is distributed evenly in all directions, causing the container to experience a force perpendicular to its surface. The pressure increases with depth, as more fluid weight is pressing down.
Why gasses exert pressure?
As the molecules in the gas move, they collide with the container they are within. These collisions is what we call pressure.
Do all fluids exert pressure?
Yes, all fluids exert pressure. Pressure is a fundamental property of fluids and is caused by the molecules in a fluid colliding with the walls of the container or object they are in contact with.
How do gas particles exert pressure on their container?
'This is because the air particles are bumpinginto each other and the walls. When this happens it causes pressure on the walls because of the speed the air particles are moving
How does a gas exert pressue on the container in which it is being held?
A gas exerts pressure on the container because it is bouncing off the walls of the container at a certain force. The greater the force is the greater the pressure.
How would you show that liquids exert pressure in all directions?
Liquids exert pressure in all directions because the particles in a liquid are in constant motion and collide with the walls of the container as well as with each other. This creates a force that is evenly distributed in all directions, leading to pressure being exerted uniformly throughout the liquid. This can be demonstrated by observing that liquid levels are the same at all points within a closed container.
