W2=W1. Since densities of air inside and outside ballon are identical, weight w of added air inside ballon is equal to weight w of displaced air. Spring balance will not register any difference as ballon will experience uplift force equal to w that exactly cancells weight of added air. Volume of baloon is assumed unchanged, therefore volume of air displaced by baloon itself is unchanged.
