What would happen to the pressure of the gas if the temperature inside the can increases?

Gases are one of three common states of matter and are affected by changes in temperature, volume, and pressure. When the pressure of a gas in a closed container becomes too high, it can cause the container to burst. The graph below illustrates the relationship between pressure and temperature (K) for ordinary gases.
