YES!!!
However, there is no need to heat the helium.
It is a light gas.
and it is an inert gas.

Is helium gas in a hot air balloon?
No, hot air balloons, as the name suggests, contain hot air, not helium.
Is hot air balloons filled with helium?
No, it is filled with heated air.
Does helium rise?
yes honey, that's why hot air balloons rise
How high do hot air balloons go up?
they contain helium molecules which are lighter than the air we breath making the balloons rise
Why is hydrogen used to inflate hot air balloons?
Hydrogen is not used to inflate hot air balloons. Just regular air is used which is then heated to make the balloon more buoyant as hot air weighs less than cold air. Hence the name hot air balloons.
Is helium only used in balloons and air ships?
Helium is the most used gas for balloons; sometimes hot air and rarely hydrogen.
What form is helium?

What last longer helium fill balloon or hot air balloons?

Is helium gas in a hot air balloon?

Which gas is used to fill the balloons?
Hydrogen, until the Hindenburg,then everyone realized that "Hey, Hydrogen isn't that safe to use!"Hot air balloons, you mean?? Just air that is hot.Actual hand balloons and such? Helium or again, just air. Helium floats better because it is lighter than the surrounding air around it. Helium and air are still used in both.
What element is used more in making balloons?
Helium is a gas used to inflate lighter than air balloons.
Why is hot air better than helium in hot air balloons?
Hot air balloons use hot air. They have a burner to heat the air. Hydrogen balloons were too dangerous because hydrogen is highly flammable, even static electricity could cause an explosion. Helium is safer because helium is not flammable.
Why is helium used in hot-air balloons when hydrogen is the lighter gas?
heliums ligther
What chemical formula makes you balloons?
Balloons contain helium or hot air.
What chemicals do balloons contain?
helium or oxygen depending on what you put in them
What element is used in balloons to keep them in the air?
Helium (Hydrogen could also be used but this is flamable). Not some balloons are also kept aloft using hot air.
