An innertube floats for the same reason that a balloon filled with helium floats in the air. In a helium balloon the gas is lighter than the air. Air in an innertube weighs less than the water and therefore floats to the top. This is called buoyancy. It weighs less than the water but more than the air above the water due to the rubber of the tube. This is why it stays on the surface and does not float away into the sky.
