(choose chapter or problem)

You are holding two helium balloons, a largeballoon and a small balloon. How do thepressures of helium compare?A The pressure in the large balloon is greater thanthe pressure in the small balloon. This is bestexplained by the fact that there are more molesof gas in the large balloon, thus greaterpressure.B The pressure in the small balloon is greaterthan the pressure in the large balloon. This isbest explained by the fact that as the volumeof a container decreases, the pressure of thegas increases.C The pressure in the large balloon is greater thanthe pressure in the small balloon. The fact thatthere is greater pressure in the balloon is whythe volume is larger; as the particles push moreon the inside, the volume increases.D The pressures are essentially the same andabout equal to atmospheric pressure.
