A gas must be kept in closed containers to prevent it from escaping into the atmosphere, which can lead to loss of the substance and potentially create hazardous conditions. Additionally, containing the gas allows for the maintenance of pressure and temperature, which are crucial for many chemical reactions and processes. Closed containers also help to minimize contamination and ensure safety by preventing the interaction of the gas with other substances.

Could gas and liquids flow into a container?
Although they are both fluids, it depends on the type of container.Liquids can usually be carried in open- or closed- containers. Mugs and glasses (tumblers) are examples of open containers. A soda bottle with a screwcap or any kind of container that seals the contents against the atmosphere are examples of closed containers.Liquids carried in closed containers may need protecting from the atmosphere (brake fluid is hygroscopic and the container must always be sealed when stored) or it may be that the liquid gives off fumes (like ammonia) which may harm the carrier or the environment.Unless they are particularly heavy, gases are generally only carried in closed or sealed containers as they may cause harm to the environment.
Which variables must be kept constant for Boyle's law to hold?
Temperature and the amount of gas (moles) must be kept constant for Boyle's law to hold true. This means the pressure and volume of a gas are inversely proportional provided the temperature and amount of gas remain constant.
Why is liquefied natural gas carried aboard ships in giant spherical containers?
A sphere has the lowest surface to volume ratio of any solid body. Since liquefied natural gas must be kept at a temperature far below ambient temperature, and since heat can enter the storage container only through its surface, using a spherical container minimizes the energy that must be expended to maintain the stored liquefied natural gas at a low temperature.
In which states of matter can materials take the shape of their containers liquid and gas solid and liquid solid and gas?
Superfluidity
What is the unique quality of gases in relationship to volume?
A gas will expand to fill up any volume available to it. Think of rigid containers that will not change shape or volume. If you have 10 completely empty containers that can be connected. Inside each is a vacuum. Place some gas in the first container. It completely fills the container and creates some pressure. Connect a second container and some of the gas leaves the first container, but not all of the gas. The gas will completely fill both containers, but creating less pressure. Continue connecting containers, and the same appens every time. The gas completely fills every container that is connected and the pressure 'adjusts' on its own to reach a new equilibrium pressure.
Why bleaching powder is kept in air tight containers?
On standing in the open air bleaching powder react with carbon dioxide produce chlorine gas. As a result the activity or bleaching property of bleaching powder is reduced. So it is kept in a closed container.
What would happen if you kept hydrochlic acid in iron containers?
The iron would bubble and flammable gas would be released

What instrument measures gases in closed containers?
On 2 aspects, 1. A pressure sensor, can link to amount of gas formed, and a GC autosampler can work for qualitation, or quantitation
Why do gas fills it containers?
Gas diffuses in space.

Why you can't store gases in open containers?
Gases can't be stored in open containers because the gas will escape into the atmosphere. Gases have the tendency to occupy all the space that is available to them. If I have to explain it i would tell you to imagine molecules as small children who love huge spaces so that they can run around, gas molecules are exactly that.
Is the gas valve open or closed?
The gas valve is closed.

How is the gas pressure produced in a closed closed container of gas?
the particles of gas bouncing into the walls of the container.
How are a solid and a gas different?
Liquids have the form of the containers.
How is chlorine stored?
Chlorine is typically stored as a compressed gas in gas cylinders or as a liquid in specialized containers. The storage containers are designed to withstand high pressure and are kept in well-ventilated and secure areas to prevent leaks or potential hazards. Chlorine should always be stored in a cool, dry place away from sources of heat or ignition.
