The elastic material of common balloons is inflated by a higher pressure of the air inside the balloon. The pressurized air molecules exert a greater force against the inside of the balloon, pushing it outward against the resistance of the elastic material.

Non-elastic balloons must have a pressure equal to or greater than the outside air.

What makes elastic helium balloons rise is that the helium (although having a higher interior pressure) is much less dense than the outside air, and is displaced by the air and forced upward.

Who can blow a bigger balloon a older kid or a younger kid?

An older kid should be able t blow a bigger balloon because a younger kid would have less breath and would therefore blow the balloon up slower and the older kid would be able to blow the bigger one. Also, the more air in the balloon the harder it will be to blow it up.

What happens if you heat a balloon?

If you gradually heat a balloon, then the gas inside the balloon will expand, causing the balloon to become bigger in volume.If you put a balloon above a flame, then the balloon will pop because the heat will weaken bonds in the polymer that makes up the balloon, thus the polymer will not be able to hold the pressure of the gas inside the balloon.
