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 mass can a hot hot-air balloon carry?

That depends on the ratio of the mass in the basket to the mass of the balloon. The bigger the carrying mass the greater the size of the balloon.


What happens to the mass of a balloon when you put it in a warm room?

Nothing happens to the mass of the balloon. Mass is conserved, so the temperature of the balloon will not affect it's mass. Mass can be thought of the amount of "stuff" that makes up a balloon. It can be obtained by adding up the mass of all the molecules of rubber in the balloon. Obviously, putting the balloon in a warm room will not change the number of molecules in the balloon, therefore the mass stays constant. The volume of the balloon will probably increase. Because volume increases but mass remains constant, the density of the balloon would decrease. D = m/v


You filled a balloon with 560 ml of water the balloon and water have a mass of?

The water has a mass of roughly 560 grams, depending on its purity and temperature. We have no idea what the mass of the balloon is.


How can you weigh air in a balloon?

Identify the weight of balloon with air. And identify the mass of the balloon. Now subtract the second from the first. You get the mass of the air present in it.


Does air in a balloon have no measurable mass?

No, air is matter and all matter takes up space therefore, having a mass. You can find it by subtracting the mass of the balloon from the total mass of the balloon and the air. (You will need a very accurate scale.)


Can a balloo n have mass?

Yes. A balloon has mass.


Why does a blown up balloon weigh more than a flat one?

Since air is matter, it does have mass. So adding its mass to the mass of the balloon would cause the balloon to have more mass. Weight is a measure of the pull of gravity on an object and an object with more mass is "pulled" more, so the balloon with air in it would indeed be heavier than a balloon without air.


How many nitrogen molecules are in a balloon?

This depends on the mass of nitrogen contained in the balloon.


Does the air in the balloon have mass?

yes


A balloon has a volume of 6.3 liters Calculate the mass of helium that it would take to fill the balloon?

The mass of helium contained will be 1 gram.


How does the size of a balloon effect the mass it can weigh?

it's because of the ratio of the weight of the air in the balloon to the air outside the balloon
