The volume of the balloon will increase as it rises in the air. This is because the atmospheric pressure decreases at higher altitudes.

What is the volume of a bubble?

It depends on the size of the balloon. As the diameter of the balloon increases, its volume is cubed, therefore the volume quickly increases with the size of the balloon.


Does the size of the air balloon matter when its up in the air?

Yes it does. The size of the balloon determines how much volume of gas can be held in it.


What happens to the mass in a balloon when heated?

the mass of the balloon increases because the size of the balloon has increased. :)


What volume of helium in a balloon half a mm thick?

You will need to know the actual size of the balloon as the bigger its inflated the more gas volume required.


What will change the size of the weather balloon as it rises?

The pressure of the air inside it. The higher the balloon rises, the lower the outside air-pressure. With less pressure outside, the balloon expands because of the pressure of the air inside it. Eventually, the balloon bursts, and scientists recover the instruments when they fall to earth.


What happens if you heat up a balloon?

When pressure decreases dose volume increase or decrease?

Think of a balloon. Let some air out and the pressure goes down, and the balloon decreases in size.


How far off is the difference between the volume of a sphere than a balloon of the same size?

It depends on many things, but if you're going by the equatorial radius as the same size, the balloon should be about 10-15% larger. Note that you can mesure the volume of irregular shapes, thanks to my good friend Archemedes ("Eurika!"). Take a mesuring container large enough to easily hold the balloon and fill it about 2/3 full. Note the volume the water occupies by the water level. Now, immerse the balloon in the water and mesure the volume by the water level again. the difference is the volume of the balloon.


What happens to a balloon kept in a very warm greenhouse?

The balloon will increase in size because the average kinetic energy of the gas molecules in the balloon will increase when the temperature increases .... Therefore the balloon from the greenhouse will increase its size and if we bring the ballonext back to the normal room temperature then the balloon will comega back to its original size ...

What happens to the volume of a balloon that is taken outside on a cold?

As we know, Charles's Law states that for a fixed amount of gas at a constant pressure, the volume of the gas changes in the same way that the temperature of the gas changes. So, if a balloon is taken outside on a cold winter day, which means in a low temperature, the volume will also decrease due to the lower temperature.


Does the gas inside a balloon affects its size and shape?

Increasing the temperature or pressure of the gas the volume increase.


How does temperature affect the size of a balloon?

When the temperature is colder the particles in the balloon travel slower, making the balloon not able to increase in size it decreases.When the temperature is hot it allows the balloon to expand because the particles in the balloon are moving rapidly. in conclusion the the cold makes the balloon decrease in size and the heat allows it to expand.
