Hm-mm, it actually sounds rather awkward because generally something is either closed or not closed. I think I would say "Is the container closed well?", or "have you closed the container well?"On the other hand I don't know whether I would consider it incorrect, just awkward usage would be my opinion.

Yes. If you are unsure as to grammer, just move some words around and see if it still sounds correct. For instance, you could say, "is the container closed well?" Or "I pressed down on all the sides of the lid. I closed it well."

It's better if you say= Is the container close properly?

'the container is closed well'. Because of the way did it, it is well closed.

I would say, "Is the container closed well?" or, "The container is closed well."

Best wishes

It should be "is the the contaner clossed well?"
or
"the contanar is closed well." but then again, ppl say so many things wrong, so does it matter?
