The first balloon was invented by Brazilian priest Bartolomeu de Gusmão , and the first public exhibition was to the Portuguese Court on August 8 , 1709 , in the hall of the Casa da India in Lisbon
Helium however was invented by Sir Norman Lockyer. He taught at the Royal College of Science and specialised in studying the sun. His investigations into sun spots resulted in his discovery of the element that he named "helium'.

The hydrogen balloon that exploded in 1937 was the Hindenburg airship. The Hindenburg disaster occurred on May 6, 1937, while trying to land in New Jersey, resulting in a catastrophic fire that led to the deaths of 36 people.
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.
Hydrogen was not invented. For those who believe in Big Bang Theory, it was created during that event. It was discovered by Henry Cavendish, a British scientist in 1766.
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.
he invented the hydrogen air balloon
Balloons were invented in 1824 by Professor Michael Faraday. He created the first rubber balloon by filling a cloth with hydrogen gas.

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

A balloon with CO2 instead of helium or hydrogen
the rubber balloon was first invented by a professor named Michael faraday..
There is the weather balloon, and the zeppelin. Both use Helium, and no longer Hydrogen due to hydrogen's tendency to quickly catch fire.
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.
Hydrogen is lighter than helium. So hydrogen balloon will float better than helium.
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.
