Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
When an inflated balloon is kept in the sun, due to the sun's heat, the temperature increases, which in turn increases the kinetic energy of the gaseous particles, these particles start moving away from each other, and the balloon starts expanding. The pressure exerted on the walls of the balloon increases as the air inside it expands. The balloon keeps on expanding until a stage comes where the balloon cannot expand further, and it bursts. Hence, the given statement is true.
