Provided you take a deep enough breath, yes you can. It wouldn't even be any harder then above the water because the same pressure on the balloon is also pushing on your chest. Just don't forget to surface before you take another breath.

Yes. Gas will fill the balloon provided that the gas entering the balloon has a greater pressure than the pressure that the water is exerting on the outside of the balloon. It gets harder to blow up a balloon the deeper you get.

Yes, but the further under water you go the greater the pressure applied to the outside of the balloon and the harder you would have to blow to expand the balloon.

If the air pressure blowing the balloon is greater than that of the gallons of water around you...

Why not? If you have enough air in your lungs. It will be much harder because of the pressure being applied to the balloon.

yes...u just need to get air in your lungs by sticking your head above water a few times

Yes, it can, but before you attempt that, you should smell what a scratch & sniff smells like underwater!
