Some balloons just have air (the inflated ones used as decorations). The ones that rise in the air are filled with helium, a gas much less dense than air. The large balloons that carry people aloft are lifted by hot air, using propane burners. Hot air is also less dense than cooler air. The weather balloons that rise to great heights are filled with helium or other gases, and some inevitably pop when they expand to their limit in the upper atmosphere.
That really depends on the type of balloon. A hot air balloon would be filled with hot air, hot air rises above cold air. A party baloon may just be filled with cold air or helium, helium rises above cold air.
WHAT IS THE STICKY STUFF INSIDE OF BALLOONS
helium
The shape and the size of a toy balloons doesn't depend on the kind of gas inside.
helium
In several big balloons or bladders inside the outer casing.
The air inside the balloons eventually escapes out of it so the balloon becomes empty of air.
Anyhow

The answer depends on the pressure inside the balloons.
Balloons float because the gas inside them is lighter than the air outside. This creates a buoyant force that pushes the balloon upwards. Helium is commonly used in balloons because it is less dense than air.
The balloons might represent ideas, with gifts representing the rewards that come from developing good ideas.
Yes, no matter how much air is filled inside of the balloons.
