Best Answer

because the heat of the sun makes its makes it pop

most substances have a unique feature of expanding when subjected to heat. similarly the rubber in a balloon expands and expands and expands until a time comes when it ruptures or breaks just like how it happens if you blow too much air in to it...

Why do some balloons pop when they are left in sunlight too long?

Since the sun contains heat, the molecules move faster and that is kinetic energy. As the pressure increases, the temperature also increases. That causes the balloon to expand and it will eventually pop.

Why do balloons pop in sunlight and not in a shadow?

This is the best answer I can think of... In the sunlight, balloons receive energy from the infa-red radiation from the sun. pV=nRT... ie. for a balloon at roughly the same pressure, volume is proportional to temperature. This means that if temperature increases, volume of the balloon increases and so it pops.

Why do balloons pop in sunlight?

Due to the hear of the sunlight the air inside the balloon expands and air pressure increases which will result in to the bursting of the balloons.all the heat rays from the sun hit the suface of the balloon and the heat pops the balloon.

Why do some balloons pop when they are left in the sunlight for to long?

This is especially likely in thin-skinned balloons, like the latex balloons used in birthday parties. The molecules of air that filled the balloons will move faster as they absorb the heat from the sun, and as they do, they gain kinetic energy and will take up more room. This is known as Boyle's Law of Gases. Essentially, the warmer any gas becomes, the more volume (room) the molecules of that gas require. Eventually, in a thin balloon the internal pressure caused by the increased temperature of the gases inside become greater than the ability of the balloon to contain them and the balloon bursts, releasing the gases to the atmosphere.
