3.

What would happen to an inflated balloon if you placed it in the refrigerator overnight?

a)

It would get larger in size because the air molecules inside the balloon speed up and spread out until the balloon cools.

b)

It would get larger and pop because the molecular motion of the air inside the balloon continuously increases.

c)

It would get smaller in size because the air molecules slow down and contract when cooled.

d)

It would get smaller in size because the air molecules shrink in size.

4.

a)

Part A

b)

Part B

c)

Part C
