Why is it difficult to open the lid when the soup is cold? Water vapour cannot escape and condenses on the lid The atmospheric pressure is greater than the air pressure in the bowl The air molecules move faster than the water molecules The airtight lid prevents the air molecules to decrease in size when the soup gets cold
