Just plain old ordinary air, but heated by the flame of the burner (which I believe burns propane gas).

What kind gas is used in hot air balloon?
No Gas Just hot air which is why it is called a hot air balloon. If you were wondering hot air is lighter than cold air which makes it rise so when it is trapped inside the balloon the whole thing will rise.
Which gas is used to fill a hot air balloon?
A typical hot air balloon is filled with the same air we breath.
What kind of fuel is used for the hot air balloon?
Propane gas is used to fuel the burners that heat the air inside the balloon.A hot air balloon is filled with regular air that's heated by a propane burner. This heated air has a lower density than the air outside the ballon, thus allowing the filled balloon to be buoyant.
What is used in a hot air balloon?
Hydrogen is used. Sorry. Just regular air is used in a hot air balloon, it is heated which makes it lighter and less dense and therefore provide lift. Hence the name hot air balloon. Hydrogen is used in a gas balloon.
What is the name of the gas that is filled in hot air balloons to make them soar and rise up in the sky?
In a "hot air" balloon, which you refer to in your question, the gas is hot air. Heated air rises, so the balloon rises. The gas used in the burner, to heat the air, is propane.

How have you used the properties of gas in regards to an hot air balloon?
It is lighter than air
Why does air in a balloon take up all the space in the balloon?
It's a gas. The air molecules are free to move around anywhere in the balloon.
What kind of air is used when you blow a balloon up?
When a balloon is "blown up" with your mouth, you are just passing "air" which is mostly Nitrogen, Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide. When a balloon is blown up so that it can float, then Helium gas is used. Helium gas is lighter than air, allowing the balloon to float. Other gases, such as Hydrogen are also lighter than air, however they are either dangerous or expensive to produce. For example, hydrogen is explosive. Helium is both inexpensive, and inert.
If a balloon filled with an unknown gas floats in the air then what can be said about the gas in the balloon?
The gas in the balloon is lighter than air. It has a specific gravity relative to air of less tha one.
What gas are used in tour balloon?
They use propane to heat regular air in the balloon. \The canopy of the balloon only holds heated air, the propane is held in a tank and is only used to create heat.
