Answer Details
When the temperature of a gas is increased, the kinetic energy of the gas molecules increases. This means that the gas molecules move around faster and collide with the walls of the container more frequently and with greater force. This increase in the frequency and force of the collisions between the gas molecules and the walls of the container results in an increase in pressure. Therefore, an increase in temperature of a gas in a fixed volume results in an increase in pressure due to an increase in the number of collisions between the gas molecules and the walls of the container.
