Natural air is always a mixture, and more or less homogenous in its major constituents. However, if the balloon was inflated by mouth, it will have less oxygen and more carbon dioxide than the air outside the balloon, which is also a mixture.

∙ 6y agoAs a balloon is often inflated by blowing air into it from the mouth, the air is a mixture of atmospheric air, including the carbon dioxide from the lungs. Even if inflated using a pump, the air is still not a pure substance, as atmospheric air is a mixture of several gases.

What makes a helium balloon?
A rubber bladder with helium inside.
Is helium inside a balloon a compound?
Helium is not a compound; it's a single element in its gaseous form.
Why does a CO2 filled balloon deflate quicker than a helium filled balloon given that helium atoms are smaller and monatomic?
Well...it's because they're not the same balloons. There is a product out there called Super Hi-Float. You coat the inside of a balloon destined to be filled with helium with it, and it helps seal the pores of the latex hence holding the helium in longer. You probably wouldn't do this with a balloon you're going to fill with CO2.
What is the helium made of in balloons?
No, a ballon cannot be made of helium, which is a gas. A ballon is made of plastic or cloth. Helium is one of the light gases that may be put into a balloon to make it lighter than air and thus able to rise in the air.
What happens to kinectic energy in balloon filled with helium gas?
Kinetic energy is lowered as the helium inside becomes compressed. Potential energy is stored, and can be released, usually by popping the balloon.
Is the air inside a balloon a pure substance?
In a helium balloon- one that floats and rises to the ceiling it is elemental helium that is used to inflate the balloon. If you just blow into a balloon to inflate it then it is air inside the balloon which is a mixture of gases, principally nitrogen and oxygen (both elements). There are also other gases that are chemical compounds such as carbon dioxide.

Does a helium balloon float with anything inside?
Helium
Does a hot air balloon have helium inside it?
No, I am sorry, but there is no helium inside a hot-air balloon. Instead, there is hot air.
Does gravity go inside of a balloon?
No. Air or helium goes inside the balloon.
What makes a helium balloon?
A rubber bladder with helium inside.
What is inside the inflated balloon?
Helium goes into a balloon to make it float.
Is inside balloon solid liquid or a gas?
Inside a balloon there is gas. This gas is normally helium if you want the balloon to fly high, but hydrogen also works.
What happens to the atmospheric pressure acting on the balloon as the balloon rises?
due to pressure inside the balloon, will be higher because the balloon will try to get smaller and thus the balloon will ascent due to the low density of the helium inside the balloon.
When a helium balloon rises in the air it expands If the volume of the balloon doubles what happens to the density of the helium inside it?
The density is reduced to 50% (half) of its original value.
What happens to the pressure of the air outside of the balloon as it goes higher?
The pressure inside the balloon will be higher because the balloon will try to get smaller and thus the balloon will ascent due to the low density of the helium inside the balloon.
Is helium inside a balloon a compound?
Helium is not a compound; it's a single element in its gaseous form.
