Answer:

Temperature can change the volume of air.

Explanation:

Tire pressure can decrease about 1 PSI for every 10 degrees the temperature drops. The air inside the tire condenses, taking up less space when it's cold. This is temporary because driving will heat up the tire and increase the tire's pressure.
