Why does air seep out of balloons when there are no holes in it?

All gases will diffuse through rubber to a certain extent. The difference in pressure for the helium between the inside and outside is 1 atmosphere and so it diffuses out. Note that the difference in pressure for the air between the outside and inside is also 1 atmosphere and so the air diffuses in. You can buy high quality balloons so that this does not happen as rapidly.

Can same type of balloons withstand the same amount of pressure?
Yes, no matter how much air is filled inside of the balloons.
What are the two types of air balloons in how are there different?
y are two types the helium balloon and the hot air ballon..
Why do balloons go flat?
Because of the intermolecular space, air molecules will slowly bind to the rubber molecules and eventually will find there way out. This will go pretty fast with a balloon because of the thin wall. But it also happens to your car tire, but more slowly.
What are the things that move with the help of air?
every things in world move only because of the presence of air , any for this question yatches , planes etc will be the answers.
Why does the air come out of the balloon?
The air in the balloon is under higher pressure than the air outside the balloon. It wants to equalize.
Why don't balloons stay up in the air even though they have air or hellium inside?
Air can escape from the ballons even if there aren't holes in them.
How do you put 'seep through' in a sentence?
the wind will soon seep through the open holes in the door.
Helium balloons vs carbon dioxide?
Helium balloons deflate faster because the molecules are smaller and can seep through the smallest of holes. ... Except that this isn't what happens. Try inflating some latex balloons with CO2 (use a chemical reaction with baking soda to generate it) and compare them to helium balloons. It's amazing to see how quickly the CO2 balloons shrivel up. Note: balloons made of mylar or other materials might behave more in line with theory, but CO2 escapes from latex balloons quickly.
What is Air that is flowing apart is known as ----- air?
seep air
Why lighter than air balloons fly?
air balloons or hot air balloons fly because they fill with a very light type of air. The air is hot air.
Air that is flowing apart is known as what type of air?
seep air
Which gas do you use for hot air balloons?
Hot air is used for hot air balloons.
What form is helium?
hot air balloons and balloons
Why do balloons come closer when air is blown between them?
The wind between the balloons creates a lower pressure in the air, so the air around it pushes the balloons together.
What last longer helium fill balloon or hot air balloons?
hot air balloons
Where in the atmosphere do hot air balloons float?
Hot air balloons float because hot air displaces cool air in the atmosphere
Why do rubber balloons lose air faster than plastic balloons?
plastic balloons lose air because particles are moving in the balloon and leave it
