Okay, basically, hot air balloons trap air within them. Air, (according to the particle theory) is made of molecules and atoms that keep moving.
In order for a hot air balloon to rise, you turn on like some fire thing (sorry I don't know the name) which is placed directly under the opening of the 'balloon'. You know the principle hot air rises and cool air sinks. As the air inside the 'balloon' is heated, the atoms gain energy. They move faster in the enclosed space, bumping one another out. By bumping against one another, the atoms spread out, and thus the spaces between the particles become bigger. Now the hot air is less dense than the cool air.The hot air will rise (like how oil floats on water) and thus...you rise too!
Basically, its all about the temperature affecting the speed and energy of the air particles.

How does particle theory explain the formation works in a hot air balloon?
A gas burner is used in the hot air balloon to heat air. When heat is applied, particles tend to expand. Due to this the air surrounding the balloon is cooler than the air inside it, making it to rise.
What is the particle model of matter of a hot air balloon?
yes
What happens to air pressure if a balloon with the same initial volume is placed in a beaker of cold water then placed in a beaker of hot water?
it would shrink in cold and expand in warm, if you really want to surprise your teacher say it has to do with particle theory
How does a balloon expand?
when you fill a balloon with air the air makes pressure. the air pressure maximizes the balloon fabric allowing the balloon to expand.
When you insert a balloon into a bottle and you pump air into the balloon why the balloon will not fill up the bottle?
Balloon will not fill up the full bottle in this experiment as the air is restricted by the walls of the balloon. Balloon is a solid so the air will take its shape.

How a hot air balloon works in a partical theory?
yes
What are good facts about how a balloon car works?
a balloon car works by the air in the balloon.
What is the particle model of matter of a hot air balloon?
yes
What makes a hot air balloon works?
a hot air balloon works when the hot air blowing from the bottom pushes up the balloon which lifts it up into the sky where it moves in the direction where the wind blows .
How does a balloon powered boat works?
A balloon car works by your air because you have to blow up a balloon and put it on the end of your boat.
How does hot air balloon work?
the balloon works with the poplo force forcing it up
What does air do to help your heart?
Hot air rises. That is how a hot air balloon works.
The following statement as a theory or a law heating the air in a hot air balloon cause the balloon to rise?
It is more like an observation or a hypothesis(depending on whether you have done the experiment or not).The law is the thermal expansion of gasses (Henry's Law).The theory is that a (lightweight) balloon filled with enough air that is hot enough will rise.
What works better for a hot air balloon polyester or cotton?
cotton
Facts about hot air balloon?
it works bye using fire
How would you describe air and water resistance using the particle theory?
we describe air by answering it's properties
