Afactory at a low elevation ships bags of popcorn to cities at high elevations. why does the factory manager need to monitor the amount of air in each bag? too few molecules can cause the bag to collapse and crush the popcorn as it moves from a low pressure to a high pressure. too many molecules can cause the bag to pop as it moves from a low pressure to a high pressure. too few molecules can cause the bag to collapse and crush the popcorn as it moves from a high pressure to a low pressure. too many molecules can cause the bag to pop as it moves from a high pressure to a low pressure.

nevermind i know the answer.
the answer is d. too many molecules can cause the bag to pop as it moves from a high pressure to a low pressure.

Too many molecules can cause the bag to pop as it moves from a high pressure to a low pressure

Explanation:

Looking at the physics of gaseous molecules, and applying knowledge of how pressure affects gas molecules we can predict how the bags of popcorn are affected by the change in atmospheric pressure.

When at ground level, the atmospheric pressure is very high, and so there is a force that is forcing the bags to stay compressed, however as you move higher and higher into the upper levels of the atmosphere the atmospheric pressure decreases, and thus there is a greater effect on the bags where the pressure on the inside of the bag exceeds the pressure pushing from the outside of the bag, and this can cause the bags to pop.

This is avoided by making sure there are very little molecules in the bags to begin with.

Option D. Too many molecules can cause the bag to pop as it moves from high pressure to a low pressure

your answer would be a. 12.5 kg
