The hydrogen in a sealed rubber party balloon is compressed slightly by the balloon rubber. So its density decreases a little, its pressure increases, and its temperature increases. But the temperature soon returns to the ambient temperature as heat is lost through the balloon wall.

Also, the hydrogen will not stay in the balloon for long because it will leak out through pores in the rubber.

Why hydrogen balloon rise in air?

A hydrogen balloon rises in air because the hydrogen gas inside the balloon is lighter than the surrounding air. This makes it buoyant, causing it to float upwards. The difference in density between the hydrogen gas and the air creates an upward force, lifting the balloon off the ground.


Which of a hydrogen filled balloon air filled balloon and a carbon dioxide filled balloon will deflate the fastest and which is the slowest and explain your answer?

A hydrogen balloon will deflate the fastest because molecules of hydrogen are the smallest and thus will more easily slip through the latex of the balloon. The carbon dioxide-filled balloon will deflate the slowest because these molecules are the biggest, and thus will have more trouble escaping the tiny pores in the balloon.


Why a balloon filled with hydrogen gas floats in air?

A balloon filled with hydrogen gas floats in air because hydrogen is lighter than air. The buoyant force acting on the balloon is greater than the gravitational force pulling it down, allowing it to float.


What gas can make a balloon float Is it hydrogen or Nitrogen or Argon or Chlorine?

Hydrogen can make a balloon float. Nitrogen, argon, and chlorine will not. However, hydrogen is combustible and in a balloon that cam near an ignition source, could produce a fire or explosion. The preferred gas for balloons, if cost is not an issue, is helium, which does not burn and is still very light.


How can you determine if a balloon is filled with helium gas or hydrogen gas?

If you are comparing two balloons side by side, a hydrogen balloon will have more lift than a helium balloon of the same size and construction.If you open the balloons, the hydrogen is flammable, while the helium is not.

Is there more helium or hydrogen in a hot air balloon?

A hot air balloon doesn't contain helium or hydrogen.


What is a carbon dioxide balloon?

A balloon with CO2 instead of helium or hydrogen


What is another type of hydrogen balloon?

There is the weather balloon, and the zeppelin. Both use Helium, and no longer Hydrogen due to hydrogen's tendency to quickly catch fire.


What happens to the balloon as it rises?

Baloon filled with hydrogen gas float in air or rises if the quntity of gas it contain is adjusted so that the average density of the balloon is just eguall to the density of the surrounding air.The weight of the displaces air is then eguall to the weight of the balloon


Would an hydrogen balloon float better than a helium one?

Hydrogen is lighter than helium. So hydrogen balloon will float better than helium.

Can a hot air balloon be powered by hydrogen?

If the balloon were lofted by hydrogen, it would not be a "hot air" balloon, as no heat would be needed. Indeed, to get even a spark near the hydrogen would be for the balloon to go up in a huge fireball. Hydrogen was abandoned as a lift gas for lighter -than-air craft in the 1930's, exactly for that reason.


Why does a hydrogen filled in balloon rise?

Hydrogen is less dense than air, so it creates a buoyant force that causes the balloon to rise. This is because the density of the hydrogen inside the balloon is lower than the surrounding air, making it lighter and causing it to float upwards.


What will happen to a hydrogen balloon when put in air?

A hydrogen balloon in air will rise due to the fact that hydrogen gas is less dense than air. The balloon will continue to rise until it reaches an altitude where the density of the surrounding air matches its own density. If ignited, the hydrogen in the balloon can react with oxygen in the air and create a fire or explosion.
