The type of gas you put in a hot -air- balloon is either propane, or helium. we used to use hydrogen because it was lighter than air, but, it was very flammable to where even a little spark could light hydrogen and burn a house down.
Hot air balloons are typically filled with heated air, which is lighter than the surrounding air and provides lift. Some balloons may also use helium or hydrogen gas for buoyancy, but hot air is the most commonly used lifting gas for traditional hot air balloons.
Hot air balloons typically use propane gas as a fuel source for the burner that heats the air inside the balloon envelope. The propane is burned to heat the air, which causes the balloon to rise.
Hot air balloons are typically filled with hot air, rather than a gas, in order to make them buoyant and rise in the air. The air inside the balloon is heated by a burner attached to the basket, which causes the balloon to lift off the ground.
A hot air balloon is normally powered with propane. Other than that, it is just ordinary air used inside the balloon.
No, helium and hot air are not the same gas. Helium is a noble gas that is lighter than air, while hot air is a mixture of gases heated to a higher temperature than the surrounding air. Helium is commonly used to fill balloons because it is non-flammable and provides buoyancy.
Usually heating is done by passing air over the hot engine so no extra fuel (gas/petrol) is used.
The gas is hot air.

propane
A typical hot air balloon is filled with the same air we breath.
No Gas Just hot air which is why it is called a hot air balloon. If you were wondering hot air is lighter than cold air which makes it rise so when it is trapped inside the balloon the whole thing will rise.
It is lighter than air
In a "hot air" balloon, which you refer to in your question, the gas is hot air. Heated air rises, so the balloon rises. The gas used in the burner, to heat the air, is propane.
hydrogen
