The type of air that keeps a beach ball inflated is kinetic energy.
The air from your lungs has the same density as the air in our atmosphere. As a result a balloon inflated by a human using their lungs is unable to float.
Gas particles travel from an area of higher pressure to lower pressure when air leaks out of an inflated ball.
When balloons float they have helium in it. Helium is not air, but a gas. It's lighter than air, which makes it float.
It is lighter than water and is hollow with air.

A trick to taking out the wrinkles from a soccer ball that has not been inflated for a while is to let some air out of the ball. Then, air the ball up again while heating the ball with a hair dryer.
When a balloon is blown up by mouth, it will not float, but fall to the ground. This is because the air inside is the same density as the air outside. For a balloon to float up into the air, it must be inflated with a gas that is lighter than air - such as helium.

A beach ball full of air can be compared to aballoon full of helium. The overall weight of the beach ball with the air in it is less then that of the water. Water is able to move to one side so if you submerge the beach ball and let go of it the the water will move aside and under it because it is heavier. A balloon full of helium will do the same in air until it is lighter then the air underneath, but heavier then that above it.
Its gas cells were inflated with up to 7 million cubic feet of hydrogen, which is lighter than air.
None. If it is fully inflated it will be full of air so there would be no room for any water.
It could, if it contained enough air. To float on water, you would need about 1 liter of air for every kilogram you want to keep afloat.
an inflated because it takes up more room than a deflated one It depends on how you define the basketball. If you define it as just the rubber, then the mass does not change when it is inflated. If you consider the air inside the ball to be part of the ball then adding more air adds more mass. Mass is "stuff". Air has mass because air is stuff.
