Ahmed kept a balloon from his birthday for several days until it began to deflate and slowly sink to the ground. He wondered how
the balloon was losing its ability to float. He decided to use his Physical Science textbook to get more answers. What chapter should Ahmed read to learn more about how things function or behave?
He should study the chapter about laws to get a better understanding about the laws that govern physical objects.
Explanation:
Small light atoms can diffuse through tiny pores in stretched rubber much more easily than larger heavier molecule. However, helium balloons don't completely deflate when helium atoms diffuse out of the balloon, because some air molecules also move into the balloon.
Evaporation is a surface phenomenon as the molecules of the surface gets sufficient energy to overcome the force of attraction which will help in converting to the vapor phase.
