The most likely outcome in this scenario is b) higher gas pressure inside the balloon.
When the particles of a gas inside a balloon experience an increase in their average kinetic energy, it means that they are moving faster and with more energy. This results in more frequent and energetic collisions with the walls of the balloon. As a result, the particles exert a greater force on the walls, leading to an increase in gas pressure inside the balloon.
The particles of a gas inside a balloon are experiencing an increase in their average kinetic energy and the number of collisions with the wall of the balloon. What is the most likely outcome? a a large increase in air temperature outside the balloon b higher gas pressure inside the balloon c higher air pressure outside the balloon d a decrease in gas temperature inside the balloon
