Why does a balloon with argon sink?
A balloon filled with argon will sink because argon is denser than air. The density of a gas affects its buoyancy in the surrounding air; denser gases will sink while lighter gases will rise.
Why does helium rise and regular air sink?
A balloon filled with helium floats and a balloon filled with regular air falls to the ground because helium has less density than air so the air causes the balloon to sink because there are more molecules in it. The helium has less molecules in it so the balloon rises.
Why do balloons filled with air sink?
Balloons filled with air are denser than the surrounding air, causing them to sink. The weight of the balloon and the air inside it is greater than the buoyant force acting on them, resulting in the balloon sinking.
Why does a weighted air-filled balloon sink in deep water?
A weighted air-filled balloon sinks in deep water because the weight of the added material overcomes the buoyancy provided by the air inside the balloon, causing it to be denser than the surrounding water and therefore sink.
Does a balloon float or sink on water and why?
A balloon filled with air will float on water because it is less dense than water. The buoyant force acting on the balloon allows it to float.
Why does a balloon with argon sink?
A balloon filled with argon will sink because argon is denser than air. The density of a gas affects its buoyancy in the surrounding air; denser gases will sink while lighter gases will rise.
Does helium contract in cold weather and cause a helium balloon to sink and if warmed will it rise again?
Helium will contract in cold weather, but that may not cause a balloon filled with it to sink since the air will also contract - and by about the same amount - so the relative densities of the helium and the surrounding are would remain about the same and the buoyancy of a helium filled balloon would remain
Why does helium rise and regular air sink?
A balloon filled with helium floats and a balloon filled with regular air falls to the ground because helium has less density than air so the air causes the balloon to sink because there are more molecules in it. The helium has less molecules in it so the balloon rises.
Will balloon filled with water sink in oil?
Water is denser than oil, so yes, it will sink. That is true whether the water is inside a balloon or not.

Does a balloon float or sink on water and why?
A balloon filled with air will float on water because it is less dense than water. The buoyant force acting on the balloon allows it to float.
Why does a hot air balloon rise when it is heated and sink wen it is cooled?
If it is cooled its gets extremely cold from the helium,and when the heat is in the balloon it keeps it warm when its in the helium
Why does a balloon filled with water neither sink or float and it just drifts and literally becomes one with the water?
The density of water molecules is the same inside the balloon as on the outside.
How is the average density of a heluim balloon be changed to make it rise float at a constant level and sink?
you would have to deacrease the density. By doing so, you can float. I don't know bout constant level, but because the air in the balloon is more dense than outside air, the balloon will sink in air. p.s. i know you s.j.v students are probably reading this :)
A balloon filled with air is released in a room filled with carbon dioxide will the balloon float to the ceiling or sink to the floor?
The balloon filled with air will float to the ceiling in a room filled with carbon dioxide. This is because the density of carbon dioxide is greater than the density of air. The balloon will experience a buoyant force upwards due to the density difference, causing it to rise towards the ceiling.
Why don't normal balloons stay in the sky?
Due to the weight of the balloon. A balloon is merely a capsule full of air so it will fall to the ground as the balloon weighs it down. A helium balloon will rise into the air because helium is less dense than normal air (i.e. it weighs less). The air inside the balloon is the same density as the air outside. The balloon material itself is heavier than air, which causes the balloon to sink. If you decrease the density of the trapped air, such as by heating it or replacing it with hydrogen or helium, the balloon may become even lighter than the balloon material and an equal volume of normal air, in which case the balloon will float or rise.
