Explain why increasing the temperature of a gas in a closed, rigid container causes the pressure in the container to increase.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just look at clapeyron's equation: \[PV=nRT\] so if T increasis and the volume is constante the pressure must increase at the same ratio

OpenStudy (anonymous):

by Gay-Lussac's Law: states that the pressure of a fixed amount of gas at fixed volume is directly proportional to its temperature in kelvins. Pi/Ti = Pf / Tf by increasing the temperature the velocity and collision of molecular gases are increase by this case the pressure on the wall of container increase.
