one filled withair,one with water,the other filled with hydrogen. if we then take this box to the moon and then lift the lid what would happen?

My guess is that the gas filled balloons would burst because their internal pressure is greater than the moon atmospheric pressure (or if they are elastic enough they may just expand and remain intact but have a very large size . As to the water balloon nothing would happen to it.

All the three would float above the surface of moon along with the box, the lid and you because the gravity of moon is one-sixth of earth.

All will remain inside the box as there is no atmosphere. Balloons which rises up, happens due to the density which is lighter. Here, there is no density so nothing will happen.

SINCE THE INTERNAL PRESSURE IS MORE THNA THE EXTERNAL PRESSURE AND TH BALLOON CANNOT SUSTAIN THE PRESSURE ,IT WILL BURST AND THE GASES WILL ARISE AT GREATER VELOCITY THAN THEY DO ON EARTH AS THERE IS LESSER GRAVITATIONAL PULL.

Nothing. They would just sit there. Or they might pop since there is no air pressure.
