You check the air pressure in your car tires on Monday morning and the pressure
reads 765 mmHg. A cold front drops the temperature considerably overnight. You
check your tire pressure Tuesday morning and the pressure reads 740 mmHg.
Using what you've learned about the properties of gases, what causes this change
in pressure?

In warmer weather gases tend to expand and take up more room, thus increasing pressure. but in colder weather they will condense or contract and take up less space, therefore lowering the pressure of the tire in this situation.
