That would be the Hindenburg if I'm not mistaken.
Because of an accident that happened. A weather balloon was filled with hydrogen and when lightning hit it, it set on fire. Hydrogen is flammable, so they use Helium instead, because Helium is a nobel gas and so isn't flammable, but also lighter than air so the balloon floats.
Hydrogen is used in weather balloons because it is a very lightweight gas that provides the necessary buoyancy to lift the balloon and its payload to high altitudes. It is also readily available and less expensive compared to other gases like helium.
The hydrogen balloon was invented by the French scientist Jacques Charles in 1783. Charles used hydrogen gas because it is lighter than air, allowing the balloon to float. This invention played a key role in the development of aviation.
Hydrogen is used in filling meteorological balloons because it is a light and non-reactive gas that can quickly lift the balloon to high altitudes. Its buoyancy allows the balloon to rise rapidly and reach the desired height for collecting atmospheric data. Although hydrogen is flammable, the small amount used in meteorological balloons is considered safe.
Jacques Alexandre Charles first attempted to use hydrogen as a replacement for hot air in hot air balloons in 1783. This led to the first manned flight using hydrogen gas in December of the same year.
Hydrogen.
I captured hydrogen through a tube in a balloon. Then, with the balloon not all the way blown up, I put some oxygen in it. When I lit the balloon with a lighted punk it exploded with more heat and force than just a balloon with hydrogen. when the two gases were in the same balloon and not exploded they were added but not combined. When they exploded they became combined. Please, do not do this unless you have an experienced lab tech helping you.
It was a dirigible- a lighter-than-air airship with a rigid frame. It was lighter than air since it was filled with hydrogen gas. Unfortunately hydrogen is also extremely flammable.
They could be, but generally are not. Hydrogen can be an explosive gas in our atmosphere, and a spark could cause the balloon to ignite and explode. In 1937, the airship Hindenberg, which was filled with hydrogen, did so. Children's party balloons are generally filled with helium.

the Hindenburg is an airship that exploded inMay 6, 1937
Yes, if a balloon is filled with gas and is overinflated beyond its capacity, it can explode due to the pressure build-up inside. This is a result of the balloon's material being unable to contain the expanded gas volume, causing it to burst.
in a balloon and in a hydrogen car
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.
R101 was filled with hydrogen.
A hot air balloon doesn't contain helium or hydrogen.
A balloon with CO2 instead of helium or hydrogen
