Question

The inflated balloon is lighter than the burst balloon.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

• The particles having no fixed shape and volume, are highly compressible, and very low densities are termed Gases. Example - Hydrogen gas($\left({\mathrm{H}}_2\right)$, nitrogen gas$\left({\mathrm{N}}_2\right)$, air, etc.
• Air is a mixture of gases like Carbon dioxide$\left({\mathrm{CO}}_2\right)$, Nitrogen$\left({\mathrm{N}}_2\right)$, Oxygen$\left({\mathrm{O}}_2\right)$, etc; dust, and Water vapors$\left({\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\right(\mathrm{g}\left)\right)$.
• Though air does not have a fixed shape and volume it has fixed mass due to the air particles in the air.
• Due to this balloon filled with air is heavier than a balloon without air (deflated balloon).

Hence, the given statement is False.
