Fun with Gas Laws

What happens to gas when you squeeze it?

• The gas's volume decreases and its pressure increases.

• The gas remains unchanged when squeezed.

• The gas turns into a liquid when squeezed.

• The gas's volume increases and its pressure decreases.

If you heat a balloon, what happens to the air inside?

• The air inside the balloon becomes denser.

• The air inside the balloon cools down.

• The air inside the balloon stays the same.

• The air inside the balloon expands.

What do we call the law that says gas takes up space?

• The law of motion

• The principle of buoyancy

• The law of thermodynamics

• The law of gases or gas laws.

Ria is having a birthday party and she has more balloons than before. What happens to the gas?

• The gas becomes denser in the balloons.

• The gas expands to fill the additional balloons.

• The gas disappears completely.

• The gas remains unchanged regardless of the number of balloons.

Neha noticed that the balloon she took outside on a cold winter day shrank in size. What happens to gas when it gets cold?

• Gas contracts and its pressure decreases when it gets cold.

• Gas expands and its pressure increases when it gets cold.

• Gas turns into a liquid when it gets cold.

• Gas remains the same regardless of temperature changes.

Can gas be squished into a smaller space?

• Gas occupies a fixed volume.

• Yes, gas can be squished into a smaller space.

• Gas cannot change its shape.

• No, gas cannot be compressed.

What do we call the gas that fills a balloon?

• Helium

• Oxygen

• Carbon Dioxide

• Nitrogen

If you let air out of a balloon, what happens?

• The balloon changes color.

• The balloon floats higher in the air.

• The balloon expands and becomes larger.

• The balloon shrinks and loses its shape.

What happens to gas when you make it hot?

• Gas contracts and its pressure decreases when heated.

• Gas remains the same size regardless of temperature changes.

• Gas turns into a liquid when heated.

• Gas expands and its pressure increases when heated.

Why do we need to know about gas in science?

• We need to know about gas in science to understand fundamental concepts and their applications in various fields.

• Gas is only important in chemistry classes.

• Understanding gas has no real-world applications.

• Gas is irrelevant to environmental science.
