For the next experiment, several students placed a marshmallow Peep chick into the microwave. What is the BEST prediction of what will happen to the Peep chick once the microwave is turned on for 15 seconds? There is a direct relationship between pressure and A) volume so the chick will shrink. Whenever there is an increase in temperature there is B) an increase in volume so the chick expands. The gas molecules inside the marshmallow chick heat up vibrate, increase the pressure outward and the chick expands. Increased pressure due to increased temperature D) results in a decrease in volume so the marshmallow chick will begin to shrink.

Q7: Hydrogen gas filled balloons are used for survey of weather at higher altitudes. Such hydrogenballoon at Earth’s surface has a volume of 5000 mm3 on a day when the temperature is 27 ° C and the pressure is 1MPa. The balloon rises and expands as the pressure drops.
