To increase the speed of the light particles in the airtight container, the correct adjustment would be:
keeping the pressure constant and increasing the temperature.
Increasing the temperature of the gas particles will increase their kinetic energy, which in turn increases their speed. The other options would either not increase the speed of the particles or would decrease it.
