I've just been trying to find the answer to this too. After coming across several different articles where people used different calcuations the answer seems to be about 10 grammes or 1 cu ft. depending on whether you want weight or volume.
So 1 tonne of CO2 = 100,000 balloons full.
Which make my yearly driving total, er, 250,000! Or our family total abut 1.1 million... Yikes! A bit easier to picture it now.
Imagine if we had waste collections for all our CO2 emissions that were in baloons: you'd need a truck at your house every day and assuming you get 20 balloons per bin, about 150 bins emptied - unless of course it was compressed first ;-)
A typical party-sized balloon can hold around 14.7 liters of carbon dioxide. To fill the balloon, you would need to use a carbon dioxide tank or other source of compressed carbon dioxide gas.

What gas needed for photosynthesis?
carbon dioxide
Is carbon dioxide needed by green plants?
yes
What is needed in the light independent reaction?
Carbon dioxide and oxygen
What are two important ingredients for photosynthesis?
Two important ingredients for photosynthesis are sunlight and carbon dioxide. Sunlight provides the energy needed for the process, while carbon dioxide is used as a source of carbon to build sugars.
What 4 ingredients are needed by a plant to perform photosynthesis?
The four ingredients needed by a plant to perform photosynthesis are sunlight, carbon dioxide, water, and chlorophyll. Sunlight provides the energy needed for the process, while carbon dioxide and water are used to produce glucose. Chlorophyll is the pigment that captures sunlight and gives plants their green color.
How much carbon dioxide does it take to fill up a ballon?
The amount of carbon dioxide needed to fill a balloon will depend on the size of the balloon. On average, a standard party balloon can hold roughly 0.5 grams of carbon dioxide gas when fully inflated.
Why wouldn't yeast and water inflate a balloon unless you add sugar?
The sugar is needed as food for the yeast. The yeast gives off carbon dioxide as it digests the sugar. The carbon dioxide could be used to inflate the balloon. Without the sugar, the yeast remains dormant and does not give off carbon dioxide.
Do plants use carbon dioxide in photosynthesis?
YesCarbon dioxide is needed to get carbon. Carbon atoms of glucose are from CO2
Why is Carbon Dioxide needed in Photosynthesis?
CO2 is the source of carbon.
What compound provides the carbon needed to synthesize glucose?
Carbon dioxide provides the carbon needed to synthesize glucose.
Is carbon dioxide needed to burn fuels?
No
What gas needed for photosynthesis?
carbon dioxide
Is carbon dioxide needed by green plants?
yes
What is a compound needed for for photosynthesis?
carbon dioxide
What gases are needed to make photosynthesis?
Carbon dioxide.
Is carbon dioxide needed by fuels so it can burn?
No.
How many grams of carbon dioxide are needed to produce 125 grams of urea?
To produce 1 mole of urea, 1 mole of carbon dioxide is needed. The molar mass of urea is 60 grams/mol, and the molar mass of carbon dioxide is 44 grams/mol. Therefore, to produce 125 grams of urea, 125 grams/60 grams/mol = 2.08 moles of urea is needed. This means 2.08 moles of carbon dioxide is needed, which is 2.08 moles * 44 grams/mol = 91.52 grams of carbon dioxide needed.
