What might happen when you prick the balloon?
Usually the balloon will burst.
Why is a balloon heavier when it is blown up with air?
This depends on whether you consider what is inside the balloon to be a part of the balloon, since the weight of the balloon skin will remain the same regardless of what is inside it. If, however, you consider the contents of the balloon to constitute a part of the balloon's mass then it will always be heavier when inflated, regardless of the density of the substance with which it is inflated. However, in this case the density of the balloon will fall when inflated if the contents are less dense than the material of the balloon, which is highly likely since the substance would probably be a gas. Therefore the balloon would be heavier but less dense.
Will a lit cigarette ignite a helium balloon?
Helium is not flammable. However, the cigarette might puncture the balloon.
What might happen if you prick a balloon?
It may burst.
Does the material of the ball affect the way it bounces?
The material must influence the bounce of a ball: consider an inflated rubber ball versus an inflated aluminum ball. The difference might have to do with the elasticity of the material.
What happens when an inflated balloon is exposed to cold air?
When an inflated balloon is exposed to cold air, provided pressure is constant, the volume will decrease. Bring the balloon back to a warmer spot, and the gas gains kinetic energy from the warm air, and the balloon will plump back up.

If you throw a brick at a balloon it will probably burst.
Does the buoyant force on a submerged inflated balloon increase as it sinks?
No, it actually might decrease due to balloon being compressed by pressure. Floating objects are governed by Archimedes Principle which states that the weight of a floating object is equal to the water it displaces. A corollary of Archimedes Principle is that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the volume of water displaced. Therefore, when a balloon is compressed as it submerges it displaces less water and the buoyant force decreases proportionately.

Why does a bottle of soft drink left lying in the sun explode?
It does not explode. The only reason why it might "explode" is because in the sun it would heat up and the particles would move faster causing the soda to "explode."
