If a balloon is inflated and tied closed, then held over a flame, it will surely pop. The heat of the flame will melt the rubber that makes the balloon.

When a closed can is heated the pressure inside. this happens when?

When a closed can is heated, the molecules inside the can gain energy and move faster, leading to an increase in pressure. This happens because the increase in temperature causes the molecules to collide more frequently with the walls of the can, exerting more force and increasing the pressure inside.


What happens to molecules with sufficient energy when a liquid is placed in a closed container?

When a liquid is placed in a closed container, molecules with sufficient energy can escape from the liquid and turn into gas. This process is called evaporation.


What experimental observations indicate a gas is being released?

You may observe bubbles forming in the liquid, an increase in pressure within a closed container, a change in volume of the gas, or a characteristic smell associated with the gas being released.


When a chemical reaction takes place in a closed system what happens?

In a closed system, no matter can enter or leave the system, meaning the total mass inside remains constant. During a chemical reaction in a closed system, the reactants are converted into products, but the total mass of all substances before and after the reaction remains the same due to the law of conservation of mass.


What happens when a gas is compressed in a closed container?

When a gas is compressed in a closed container, the pressure of the gas increases because the volume it occupies decreases. This increase in pressure can lead to the gas molecules being closer together, resulting in an increase in temperature.

How do chemicals affect the inflation of a balloon?

Chemicals such as baking soda and vinegar can react to produce carbon dioxide gas, which can inflate a balloon by increasing pressure inside it. When the reaction occurs in a closed environment like a balloon, the increasing pressure forces the balloon to inflate.


When a van with closed doors containing helium balloon floating on it accelerates what happens to helium balloon?

It appears to move in the opposite direction to the motion of the van


How can you prove air takes up space with adding a minipulated variable?

To prove that air takes up space without adding a manipulated variable, you can use a simple experiment where you place an inflated balloon inside a closed container. Close the container and observe that the balloon will prevent the container from being fully closed, demonstrating that the air inside the balloon (which is a part of the air in the container) is taking up space.


How does air goes out of a tightly closed balloon?

It gradually leaks out. There are tiny holes in the balloon's skin.


How are the forces inside of the closed balloon balanced?

Buoyant force and weight


What happens to the air pressure inside a balloon when it is squeezed to half its volume at constant temperature?

When a balloon is squeezed to half its volume at constant temperature, the air pressure inside the balloon increases. This is because the number of air molecules remains constant while the volume decreases, leading to the molecules being packed closer together and increasing the pressure.


How can you observe gases?

Gases can be observed by their effect on surrounding objects (e.g. blowing a balloon), by their color or odor (e.g. smoke or perfume), by using sensors or detectors that can detect specific gases in the air, or by measuring changes in pressure and volume when gases are contained in a closed system.


What will happen if a balloon that is blown up and tied closed is placed in a freezer for several minutes?

The air inside the balloon will contract and the balloon will deflate due to the decrease in temperature causing the air molecules to slow down and decrease in volume.


What if you were to fill a balloon with air then let go of it without tying it closed. What causes the balloon to fly away?

The air pressure inside the balloon is higher than the surrounding air pressure, causing the air to escape rapidly. This creates a force that propels the balloon in the opposite direction, making it fly away.
