You bought a balloon for a birthday party in January. It was so cold outside that you ran into the house and forgot the balloon in the car. You go out to the car a few hours later and get the balloon. You noticed that the balloon was a little deflated. Once you brought the balloon into the house, after about 20 minutes, the balloon was back to normal.

Part A: Explain what happened to cause the balloon to deflate and then inflate. Be sure to use unit vocabulary and specific details to support your answer.

Part B: Using the information you provided in Part A, explain what would happen if you left an inflated balloon in the car on a very hot summer day.

Part A: When air is left in specific environments, it can either expand or contract depending in the given environment, so, if left in a cold car for a few hours, the air inside said balloon will contract.

Part B: If left in said car on a very hot summer day, the air in said balloon will expand, and if left in said car long enough, said balloon will explode due to the air inside expanding

Hope this helped!
