Oliver filled a gallon half full with water. He left the closed gallon in the sun for an hour while he went inside to eat. When he came back outside the sides of the gallon were pushing out. 

*look at picture*

Explain why the balloon changed shape, using evidence from the models, AND describe what will happen if the gallon continues to be heated.

The gallon changed shape because the water evaporated and turned into water vapor. The gas particles spread far apart which caused the gallon to expand. If the gallon continues to be heated, it will keep pushing to the sides.
