The air inside a hot air balloon is the same as normal air around the balloon and the air you're breathing, only heated by the flame inside the balloon, hence HOT AIR 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.
Is helium inside a balloon a pure substance or mixture?
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.
Why is air a pure substance?
Air is not a pure substance.
When you heat the air inside a hot air balloon, it rises. Why does this occur?
D: The hot air inside the balloon becomes less dense than the air outside the balloon.
How does the kinetic energy of air inside a balloon to outside air?
the air inside the balloon has more kinetic energy
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.
When you heat the air inside a hot air balloon it rises. Why does this occur?
D: The hot air inside the balloon becomes less dense than the air outside the balloon.
Does gravity go inside of a balloon?
No. Air or helium goes inside the balloon.
What if a balloon is heated what happens to the volume of the air in the balloon if the pressure is constant?
For a balloon that is sealed and not full the volume of air inside the balloon will increase as it is heated. This is not however how hot air balloons work. A hot air balloon is essentially a fixed volume when it is inflated. If the air inside the balloon is heated the air inside becomes less dense so some of the air exits the balloon via the mouth of the balloon. As the air inside the balloon cools it becomes more dense so some air is ingested via the mouth of the balloon to keep it full. With each heating and cooling cycle, the pressure inside the balloon remains constant, the volume of the balloon remains constant but there is this movement of air out of and back into the balloon.

How do you make a balloon rise into the air?
-- Inflate the balloon with some substance that is less dense than air. OR -- Inflate the balloon with air, then heat it after it is sealed.
Why does balloon fly?
The hot air inside the balloon expands, making the hot air balloon fly.
Why did they call it the hot air balloon?
A hot air balloon is called an hot air balloon because, the inside is heated up to make it less dense, allowing it to rise. Meaning, your heating up the air inside the balloon, hence, the name: Hot air balloon.
