Concept explainers
To Identify:The independent and the dependent variable in the given experiment.
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
An independent variable is one which can be controlled in an experiment to test how it effects the dependent variable.
In this experiment the temperature of the gas in the balloon is changed and the effect on the volume is measured.
Hence, temperature is the independent variable and volume is the dependent variable.
Conclusion:
The temperature is the independent variable and volume is the dependent variable.
