For latex balloons filled with helium, many party stores now have a gel that they squirt into the balloon and rub around inside. It is a silicon base and it helps to seal the pores in the latex preventing the gas from escaping. When we had it done there was an extra charge of $1.00US per dozen balloons. It was very effective.

What is in the banana that makes the balloon inflate?
The gas released by bananas is ethylene. Ethylene gas speeds up the ripening process of fruits, including bananas. As the banana ripens, it releases more ethylene gas, which can cause a balloon to inflate due to the gas pressure inside the balloon.
How do chemicals affect the inflation of a balloon?
Chemicals such as baking soda and vinegar can react to produce carbon dioxide gas, which can inflate a balloon by increasing pressure inside it. When the reaction occurs in a closed environment like a balloon, the increasing pressure forces the balloon to inflate.
Why does a balloon inflate when you add helium gas?
A ballon inflates when you add helium to it for the same reason that it would inflate if you added any other gas. By Boyle's law, increasing the number of atoms of a gas to a constant space must increase the pressure of that gas. That pressure, in a balloon, must balance the force required to stretch the balloon as well as the pressure of the atmosphere pressing in on the balloon. This is not the same as the density of the displaced air. The inflated balloon would have less mass than the volume of air it displaces. This would cause the balloon to be lighter than air, and thus rise. If the elasticity of the balloon were smaller than normal, it would require more helium in a smaller volume. If the elasticity was sufficiently small, the balloon would not be lighter than air.
What is the answer for it already has helium but what is it?
The object that already has helium is most likely a helium-filled balloon. Helium is used to inflate balloons as it is lighter than air, causing the balloon to float.
What is the meaning of inflated?
Blown in; inflated., To swell or distend with air or gas; to dilate; to expand; to enlarge; as, to inflate a bladder; to inflate the lungs., Fig.: To swell; to puff up; to elate; as, to inflate one with pride or vanity., To cause to become unduly expanded or increased; as, to inflate the currency., To expand; to fill; to distend.
How do you inflate a balloon without air?
You can inflate a balloon without air by using a different gas, such as helium, which is often used for party balloons. Alternatively, you can use a manual or electric pump to inflate the balloon with a liquid, such as water, which will evaporate and create gas inside the balloon.
Why there are gases in the balloon?
To inflate the balloon. Whether the gas is helium or just air from your lungs, gases are needed to inflate the balloon.
Could a balloon inflate with soda gas?
Yes, but it will not inflate very much
Can you inflate a balloon without blowing or pumping air into it?
Yes, you can inflate a balloon by using a chemical reaction, such as mixing vinegar and baking soda inside the balloon to produce carbon dioxide gas, which will inflate the balloon.
Can you inflate a balloon with only soda?
Yes this can be done but the process would be really slow. You can try adding some yeast to hydrogen peroxide and let the balloon be tied to the bottle containing that mixture. After couple of hours you will have inflated balloon.
How do you inflate a balloon by using science?
You can inflate a balloon by using the principles of gas expansion. When you blow air into a balloon or fill it with helium, the gas molecules inside the balloon move faster and spread out, causing the balloon to expand and increase in volume. This increase in volume creates pressure inside the balloon, making it appear inflated.
If you put water yeast and sugar in a bottle and put a balloon over the top the balloon will inflate. Will it inflate if you do NOT put sugar in it If not will anything happen at all?
Yeast eats the sugar giving off CO2 which is a gas that will inflate the balloon. Added: But since carbon dioxide is heavier than air this balloon gas will never reach the 'top'
How does a gas molecule inflate a balloon?
When a gas molecule enters a balloon, it collides with the inner surface of the balloon, exerting pressure outward. As more gas molecules enter the balloon, the pressure inside increases, causing the balloon to inflate and expand to accommodate the increasing volume of gas.
What gas inside a normal balloon?
Helium is the most common gas used to inflate balloons because it is lighter than air. This allows the balloon to float and rise when filled with helium.
Why does vinegar and baking soda inflate a balloon?
Vinegar is an acid and baking soda is an alkali. If an acid and an alkali react with each other they produce a salt, water and hydrogen gas. the gas produced can be used to inflate the balloon.
What is in the banana that makes the balloon inflate?
The gas released by bananas is ethylene. Ethylene gas speeds up the ripening process of fruits, including bananas. As the banana ripens, it releases more ethylene gas, which can cause a balloon to inflate due to the gas pressure inside the balloon.
Can you inflate a balloon with Coca-Cola and salt?
The gas that is given out during the reaction of baking soda and coke could inflate a balloon
