Suppose a balloon was released from the ground and rose to such a height that both the atmospheric pressure. Which statement is true? A) The temperature change acts to decrease the balloon's volume and the pressure change acts to increase the balloon’s volume.
B) The temperature change acts to increase the balloon's volume and the pressure change acts to decrease the balloon’s volume.
C) Both the temperature and pressure changes act to increase the balloon's volume.
D) Both the temperature and pressure changes act to decrease the balloon's volume.

The correct answer is option E) "none of the above".

Explanation:

This question is missing the following information "both the atmospheric pressure and temperature decreased"; as well as the last option, which is the correct one "none of the above". In this hypothetical scenario, a ballon has reach a height were the atmospheric pressure and the the temperature decreased. However, the change in the atmospheric pressure and the temperature would have no effect on the balloon's volume. The internal balloon's temperature and pressure tends to stabilize with the external conditions, therefore, the volume its not affected by the changes described in the question.
