Solution
The correct options are A inside bell jar pressure increase D inside balloon pressure decreases The pressure inside the balloon and in the bell jar should be equal in order to be in equilibrium. When vacuum is created in the bell jar, the initial pressure in the bell jar will be lower than that in the balloon. Therefore, the balloon expands so that the pressure in the bell jar increases while the pressure in the balloon decreases.
