The frozen balloon shrank because the average kinetic energy of the gas molecules in a balloon decreases when the temperature decreases. This makes the molecules move more slowly and have less frequent and weaker collisions with the inside wall of the balloon, which causes the balloon to shrink a little.
What happens to a balloon when the temperature increases?
What do you think happens to the volume of gas inside the balloon? As the temperature increases, the gas particles absorb more heat energy. They speed up and move farther away from one another. So the increase in temperature causes an increase in volume.
What occurs when gas is squeezed into a smaller space?
If you have a container filled with a gas, you can squeeze it down to a smaller volume by applying pressure. The harder you squeeze (the more pressure you apply) the smaller the resulting volume will be. Imagine a bicycle pump compressing air into a tire.
How does the density of a gas depend on temperature?
The density of gases depends upon the temperature. The higher the temperature, the more the molecules are spread out and the lower the density as shown in the graphic on the left. The result is that warm gases rise and cool gases sink. High pressure means high density, cooler, sinking air.
What will be the volume of 2.8 grams of carbon monoxide?
hence, volume of carbon monoxide is 30 Litres.
