Gas density can be calculated by dividing the mass of gas by its volume.If you took a balloon of gas and then warmed the balloon in a sunny window,what can now be said about the density of the gas in the balloon?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

When gas expands due to an increase in temperature, its volume increases while its mass remains constant. Therefore, dividing the same mass by a larger volume results in a lower density. Thus, the gas density in the balloon will decrease.
