All are the same
- 3. Multiple Choice
What will happen to a helium-filled balloon left in a car overnight when the temperature drops?
The balloon will explode due to the increase in gas volume.
The balloon will completely deflate due to the gas freezing.
The balloon will appear somewhat deflated due to the decrease in volume.
Nothing, the balloon will look the same. The temperature change has no effect on the gas volume.
- 4. Multiple Choice
Why might a balloon, which is inflated almost to its capacity, burst on an extremely hot day?
The balloon might be defective.
Due to the increase in the volume of the gas.
Due to the weakening of the balloon by the heat.
Because the volume inside the balloon will decrease.
