The correct answer is: 3
Outside the balloon the air is atmospheric air, that has the following composition - About 21% oxygen, about 0.04% CO2 and less than 1% H2O

Exhaled air has the following composition- About 16% O2 , About 4% CO2 , About 5% H2O .

Inside the balloon exhaled air is present. Therefore, column 3 is the right answer.
