Gas tanks are designed to be air tight, because gasoline is a volatile liquid and you do not want it to evaporate out of the tank. Of course, a gas tank can be damaged, and may cease to be air tight.

How are hydrogen tanks used in balloons for lifting and floating purposes?

Hydrogen tanks are used in balloons to provide the gas needed for lifting and floating. The hydrogen gas is lighter than air, so when it is pumped into the balloon, it creates buoyancy that allows the balloon to rise and float in the sky. The tanks are securely attached to the balloon and release the hydrogen gas as needed to maintain the desired altitude.
