A balloon is inflated outside on a cool morning. As the temperature rises, reaching its peak in the afternoon, the volume of the balloon will Choose... . As the temperature cools down again in the evening, the volume of the balloon will

Respuesta :

Answer:

The volume of the balloon will increase when temperature rises, and the volume of the balloon decreases to its initial value as temperature cools down.

Explanation:

An inflated balloon contains a definite amount of gas. Since the temperature varies, its volume would vary with respect to temperature.

The increasing temperature causes an increase in the average kinetic energy of the molecules of the gas inside the balloon. Therefore, the volume of the balloon increases as the temperature rises.

As the temperature cools down, assuming that the balloon didn't burst in the process, the kinetic energy of the molecules of the gas decreases. So that the  volume of the balloon decreases to its initial value.
