The quantity of motion in a body is known as momentum
P=mv
Momentum is conserved in highly isolated systems
In a cylinder the molecules collide with the walls of the cylinder due to which they exert force on the walls in this way momentum is conserved...a tightly closed cylinder is considered as an isolated system because it hasn't any contact with external environment.
