well when the pressure get to much inside the membrane (ballon) burst. The pressure get to much when someone sits on it for example. Another reason it pops is because of a puncture in the ballon (a needle)

when the gas get hot it causes an increase in energy and movement between the particles inside the heat may damage the surface .
when the gas gets hot it causes an increase in energy and movement between the particles inside the balloon. this increase moves the particles further away from each other and expands the balloon until it bursts.
The air molecules in the balloon heats up, and by laws of science when something is heating it expands, therefore when the balloon air is heated it expands and so does the balloon. And of course once the balloon gets to a certain size it pops. :)

There is a lot of pressurized air that closes in around a balloon as it gets higher into the sky. When there is too much pressure squeezing the surface of a balloon, it eventually pops.

Hope this helps!

when blowing a balloon, the balloon will pop after the maximum pressure allowed by the composition of the balloon e.g. (rubber, plastic and alluminum)

is exceeded.

Can a bow and arrow pop a hot air balloon?

Not really, only small balloons will "pop". Hot air balloons that are large enough to carry people will lose air ( & lift) when the balloon is penetrated or torn. The balloon will lose its ability to stay up in the air.AnswerIt's highly unlikely that an arrow would reach a hot air balloon unless it were very close to the ground


Why does a pin pop balloons?

A pin pops balloons because the latex (or whatever the balloon is made of) rips letting the air out therfore making the popping sound. The pin makes a rip in the balloon.. ;-)


How do balloons float?

Balloons that are filled with hot air, hydrogen, or helium will float, or rise upward, because the less-dense gases inside them are displaced by the heavier air around them. Balloons will only rise until the gas density inside them is equal to the density outside. In the case of helium balloons, this may be above the elastic limit of the balloon, and it will pop or leak.
