Answer:
B. It increases.
Explanation:
- We can use the general law of ideal gas: PV = nRT.
where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.
V is the volume of the gas in L.
n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.
R is the general gas constant,
T is the temperature of the gas in K.
It is clear that, at constant P, the volume of the gas (V) is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas.
V ∝ T.
So, If a balloon is heated, the volume of the air in the balloon if the pressure is constant:
B. It increases.
