Q Fireproof Balloon Presentation Heat is transferred to liquids very quickly. Gases, on the other hand, are much less conductive and therefore heat transfer occurs much slower. Today, we are going to take advantage of that effect to make fireproof balloons. For this activity, you will need the following materials: Materials: two balloons water source of fire (lighter, match, etc.) a safe workspace that is easy to clean up Instructions: Fill one balloon up with air, then place fire underneath it. Then do the same with a balloon filled with water. Submission: Design a 5-10 minute video presentation both showing your experiment and explaining why it happened based on the topics covered in Chapter 5. Include in your presentation the topics of heat exchange, heat capacity, and specific heat. Your presentation needs to show you completing the activity, followed by a detailed explanation of the thermochemistry behind this concept.
