Helium balloons vs carbon dioxide?

Helium balloons deflate faster because the molecules are smaller and can seep through the smallest of holes. ... Except that this isn't what happens. Try inflating some latex balloons with CO2 (use a chemical reaction with baking soda to generate it) and compare them to helium balloons. It's amazing to see how quickly the CO2 balloons shrivel up. Note: balloons made of mylar or other materials might behave more in line with theory, but CO2 escapes from latex balloons quickly.


Why do balloons that were left out overnight shrivel up?

Through the course of the night, some of the air (or helium or other gas) inside the balloon slowly leaked out. Also, it is very likely that the temperature of the balloon dropped by at least a few degrees. The combination of those two factors reduced the pressure inside the balloon, allowing the rubber or plastic or other material of the balloon to contract, making it shrivel up.
