yes indeed it can, basically anything with hot particles is lighter than cold particles and explands, this is because the heated particles have a lot more energy and little space so they jump around everywhere and expand

Heat causes air to expand because the molecules gain energy and move farther apart. When air expands, it becomes less dense than the surrounding air and rises due to buoyancy.

Yes. liquids expand. If we heat the beaker which is filled with water using a candle, the volume will rise as the water is mixed with hot air. Hot air would want to excape, therefore liquids do expand.


Why would heating the gas inan air balloon make the balloon rise?

because as you heat the gas, you cause the gas to expand on the container (whish is a balloon), this lowers the density, and a less dense fluid submersed in a denser fluid will rise, like an air bubble rises from underwater


Does hot air expand and rise?

yes


Why does pressure in tires increase on hot days?

Because if you heat a gas (the air in the tyre) without letting it expand the pressure will rise.

Do latex balloons expand in heat?

Yes, latex balloons can expand in heat due to the air inside them expanding as it heats up. This can cause the balloon to inflate further and potentially burst if exposed to too much heat.


What happens when you heat and cool air?

When you heat air, the air pressure rises and the particles expand.


Do regular balloons deflate in the heat?

Yes, heat can cause the air inside a balloon to expand, which can lead to increased pressure and potentially cause the balloon to burst. Over time, this expansion and contraction of the air can also contribute to the deflation of the balloon.
