A full balloon contains more gas than an empty balloon (even an empty balloon contains a little air). Therefore a full balloon is heavier than an empty balloon (assuming the balloons are the same weight to begin with). However, if filled with a lighter-than-air gas, such as helium, the full balloon will defy gravity due to its increased buoyancy. The only other difference is that the skin of a full balloon will be stretched and will therefore be much thinner than the skin of an empty balloon. This stretching increases the pressure upon the gas contained therein, therefore the gas is compressed inside the balloon.

Presumably one is empty while the other one is full.


Can you tell if a cylinder is full or empty depending on its weight?

Yes. Not sure on the exact weights (as it depends on size of tank and pressure of the gas) but you can tell a definite weight difference between an empty and full tank because the compressed air does have a weight


There are 10 glasses in a row The first five glasses are filled with water and the last five are empty How would you create a row of alternating empty and full glasses by only moving two of the glass?

Take the second and the fourth full glass, and empty the contents into the second and fourth empty glass. Put the now-empty glasses back where they were. Now the glasses alternate between full, empty, full, empty, full, empty, full, empty, full, and empty.
