Question

explain why containers have to be very strong

Answer 1

Answer:

In order to hold any useful quantity of gas the gas needs to be highly pressurised. It pushes against the sides of the container trying to force it apart so the container has to be very strong.Gas cylinders are designed to handle these kind of pressures but have to be tested every so often to remain in service.

hope this helps!
