A gas has the property that it always fills the (closed) container it is in. And it always therefore has the shape of the container. Cool it too much and it may liquify, or solidiffy. And then it's not a gas. If you cool a free atmosphere around a planet, gravity ensures that it largely has the same shape.

Yes, no gas is given off, therefore the mass of conversation will stay the same.


When a gas is cooled it?

The Ideal Gas Laws describe the relationship of temperature, pressure, and volume for a gas. These three things are all related. At lower temperatures a gas will exert lower pressure if the volume remains the same, or can exert the same pressure but in a smaller volume.


What is the pressure of the gas after it is compressed and cooled?

The pressure of the gas after it is compressed and cooled will depend on the specific conditions of the compression and cooling process.


Is solid gas?

A gas is a gas, as the name suggests. It can, along with liquid be referred to as a fluid. Cooled and pressurised sufficiently it can become a liquid and cooled further, a solid.
