Heat causes the molecules to move FASTER, (heat energy is converted to kinetic energy ) which means that the volume of a gas increases more than the volume of a solid or LIQUID. However, GASES that are contained in a fixed volume cannot expand - and so increases in temperature result in increases in pressure.
