उत्तर
Density of hydrogen is much less than the density of carbon dioxide. When a balloon is filled with hydrogen, the weight of the air displaced by an inflated balloon (i.e. upthrust) becomes more than the weight of a gas filled balloon, and hence, it rises. In case of a balloon filled with carbon dioxide, weight of the balloon becomes more than the upthrust of the air, and hence, it sinks to the floor.
