Most materials from which balloons are made are porous, meaning that they have tiny holes in them, somewhat like those in bread. Inflating a balloon actually makes the holes bigger which makes them able to leak more air causing the balloon to leak.

What happens to a balloon when its put in the fridge?
it will shrink slightly, if you take this to the extreme and use liquid nitrogen it will shrivel up to the size of a golf ball =)
Why does the balloon doesn't float when rain fall?
The rain drops stick to the balloon due to surface tension & it quickly becomes too heavy for the helium to float it. water is heavier than we give it credit for...
Why a balloon inflates when a bottle and balloon system is placed in hot water?
The hot water heats up the air inside the bottle, causing it to expand, forcing some of the air out of the bottle and into the balloon, causing it to inflate. The larger the bottle, the more air that will be pushed into the balloon. The air in the balloon will quickly cool and, since hot air is less dense and therefore rises, the cooler air is forced back into the bottle to be heated up. Eventually the air will be a constant temperature and the balloon will reach the limit of inflation. As the water cools, the air cools and the balloon begins to deflate.
How do you land a hotair balloon?
Well All hot air balloons have a variable release valve in the top of the balloon which the pilot can use to control the altitude of the balloon..This valve when opened to a certain point allows hot air to slowly escape from the top of the balloon and the balloon will slowly decend,the exchange is controlled so the balloon maintains its size...by use of the release valve and the burners the pilot can control the rate of decent to a nice soft landing....The release valve is also used to quickly deflate the ballon once it has landed...
What causes the pressure in a balloon?
The elastic property of the balloon. The balloon stretches when inflated, and squeezes the gas filling the balloon.
Why do balloons that were left out overnight shrivel up?
Through the course of the night, some of the air (or helium or other gas) inside the balloon slowly leaked out. Also, it is very likely that the temperature of the balloon dropped by at least a few degrees. The combination of those two factors reduced the pressure inside the balloon, allowing the rubber or plastic or other material of the balloon to contract, making it shrivel up.

How can i get down quickly in poptropica?
You can travel to places by your Balloon.
Can you make a parachute from a balloon?
Physically it is impossible. The air would rush through the bottom of the balloon so quickly that it would fill up fast and pop quickly.
If I use more baking soda in the balloon than instructed will the balloon inflate more quickly?
Yes
When you blow up a balloon and release it without tying its neck?
The gases filled within the balloon escape quickly.
How you know gas is inside the balloon?
If there were nothing inside the balloon - a vacuum - the balloon would quickly collapse due to the pressure of the atmosphere outside it. A firmer structure might resist the air pressure, but not a balloon.
What is a sentence for the word shrivel?
Someday his skin is going to shrivel.
Why would heating the gas in a air balloon make the balloon rise?
Hot air rises more quickly than cold air, so when you heat the air inside the balloon, it cant escape, so it pushes the balloon up.
Why does a popped balloon go bang?
because it snaps away from the other pieces quickly.
How would you use shrivel in a sentence?
There is no need to remove them, they just shrivel during cooking.
Why does the rubber balloon did not burst when youre going to put a barbecue stick in it?
Because the balloon pops when the air inside the rushes out quickly through a tiny hole.
