Best Answer

The mass of the balloon material plus the mass of the compressed gas within it. The fact that this might be less than the mass of atmospheric air which it displaces is of no consequence to this answer. But that will affect the result of any attempt to weigh it.

Depending on the balloon, one can weigh between 1 and 5 grams. A balloon will weigh slightly more if it is blown up because air actually has a very slight mass.

Ah yes I'm sure "between 1 and 5 grams" will do great for an accurate measurement in my experiment thanks, not.

The mass of its envelope ("skin") plus the mass of the gas inside. If this mass is less than the mass of air displaced by the balloon's volume the balloon will ascend if it isn't tethered.

Yes. All physical material ... any kind of 'stuff' ... has mass.

How can you weigh air in a balloon?

Identify the weight of balloon with air. And identify the mass of the balloon. Now subtract the second from the first. You get the mass of the air present in it.


Does the air has a weight?

You can blow up a balloon and then weigh the balloon and minus it from the original weight of the balloonAnswer:Weighing air is problem because of the buoyant forces at work. If you have flattened paper bag and weigh it then open it up (effectively filling it with air), and weigh it again you find the weight is the same. In the case of a balloon, a filled balloon will weigh more than an empty balloon as it is filled with compressed air due to the tension of the balloon skin. You have no idea of the volume of room pressure air is in it.To determine this you could inflate the balloon with known volume of air using bicycle pump. Simple math would identify the volume transferred with each stroke. By knowing the weight before filling, the weight after filling, and the volume transferred it would be possible to calclate the weight per meter (or cubic foot) of room pressure air.
