How does air get into a marshmallow to make it bigger?
Air does not necessarily go into marshmallows to make them expand. In fact, marshmallows are already full of air in tiny bubbles. There are two mechanisms that cause marshmallows to expand, both resulting from an imbalance in the pressure inside these bubbles compared to that of the atmosphere. The first way would be if the marshmallow is placed inside a vacuum, or any other low pressure environment. Because there is a fixed amount of air in the bubbles (from when the marshmallows were made), when the external pressure pushing against the outside of the marshmallow decreases, the air inside the marshmallow will expand so that its pressure is equal to that of its atmosphere. The other mechanism is perhaps more familiar, and that is in a microwave. What happens is that when the microwave heats the water in the marshmallow, it warms the air and the sugary goo around it. This causes the air to expand. This is like what happens when you bring balloons into a heated building during winter- the heat causes the air molecules to move faster, and bump into the sides of the container with more force, therefore pushing outward. Again the pressures inside and outside must equal each other, so the bubbles in the marshmallow expand. Furthermore, when the sugar is heated, it becomes more pliable, which allows the air to expand more easily.
