For a classroom demonstration, a Chemistry teacher puts 5 mL of water into a soft plastic pop bottle and, with tongs, holds it in a hot water bath for 1 minute. The teacher removes the bottle and tightly screws on the cap. Describe what will happen to the pop bottle as it cools.
Use the Kinetic Molecular Theory to explain the predicted observation.
