Water is polar meaning that it has prominent areas of negative and positive charge. Among water molecules there is a weak force called hydrogen bonding which causes the molecules to "stick" to one another. This sticking to itself is called cohesion, and it causes water to ball up into droplets. This same force also causes water to stick to other kinds of molecules. This is called adhesion, and it is what causes water to ride up on the side of a water container slightly.
Answer:
16.06 L was the initial volume of the balloon.
Explanation:
Initial moles of freon in ballon = 
Initial volume of freon gas in ballon = 
Moles of freon gas added in the balloon = n = 3.50 mole
Final moles of freon in ballon = 
Final volume of freon gas in ballon = 
Using Avogadro's law:
( at constant pressure and temperature)

16.06 L was the initial volume of the balloon.
A hypothesis is given to explain a phenomena which has not been
explained till then.
it can be supported by an experiment if that experiment gets the other
results regarding that particular phenomena in agreement with that being
predicted by the hypothesis
