Expert Answer
Hydrogen being lighter than air, the weight of air displaced by hydrogen ballon is greater than the weight of hydrogen. Therefore, the buoyant force on the the hydrogen balloon is greater than its weight and hence it rises up. But balloon containing air is heavier than air thus the buoyant force on it less than its weight and hence it does not rise.
