Question

An aerosol can of compressed air has the following warning label: “WARNING: Contents under pressure. Do not expose can to heat or flame. Do not crush can.” Using what you know about volume, pressure, and temperature, explain this warning.

Answer 1

I believe the answer is:

That, because pressure and temperature have a direct relationship and pressure and volume have an indirect relationship, crushing (decreasing the volume) and adding heat (increasing the temperature) will cause the aerosol can to exceed its pressure limitation and may explode. 

I hope this is what you are asking for!

Answer 2

Heating the can increases the kinetic energy of the gas molecules.

Increasing the kinetic energy of the gas molecules increases the pressure of the gas on the can.

Crushing the can reduces its volume.

As volume decreases, the pressure inside the can increases because the gas molecules collide with the can’s walls more often.

If the pressure gets too high, the can may explode.
