Does 420000 L of air have a greater or smaller mass than 420000 L of helium in a balloon?

At the same temperature and pressure, the molar volumes of gases are pretty close to equal (as long as they are at a low enough density to behave like ideal gasses). That being the case, one mole of helium weighs only about 4 grams while a mole of air weighs around 28.97 g (taking a weighted average of the components of the air) so for the same volume, the air would have more mass than the helium unless the helium was much colder or at a much higher pressure.

Is Density of helium balloon is greater or less than air?
The density of helium is less than that of air. Due to this reason, balloons filled with helium will float in air.
Why an inflated balloon gradually goes down when tied?
As The Balloons are made up helium gas.the helium gas molecules are smaller than air molecules,so they pass through the skin of the balloon .hence ,gradually the balloon becomes airless and looses flight.
Why does a CO2 filled balloon deflate quicker than a helium filled balloon given that helium atoms are smaller and monatomic?
Well...it's because they're not the same balloons. There is a product out there called Super Hi-Float. You coat the inside of a balloon destined to be filled with helium with it, and it helps seal the pores of the latex hence holding the helium in longer. You probably wouldn't do this with a balloon you're going to fill with CO2.
Is a helium balloon heavier than air filled balloon?
No. Helium is lighter than air
How much do helium balloons carry?
How much a helium balloon carries depends on the size of the balloon.
Which has a greater buoyant force a huge lead zepplin or a small helium filled balloon?
a small helium balloon :) i think.... i dont actually know the answer i just know that a small helium balloon will be very buoyant :)

What happens to the atmospheric pressure acting on the balloon as the balloon rises?
due to pressure inside the balloon, will be higher because the balloon will try to get smaller and thus the balloon will ascent due to the low density of the helium inside the balloon.
What happens to the pressure of the air outside of the balloon as it goes higher?
The pressure inside the balloon will be higher because the balloon will try to get smaller and thus the balloon will ascent due to the low density of the helium inside the balloon.
Which gas inflates a balloon the longest carbon dioxide or helium and why?
Carbon dioxide will keep a balloon inflated longer than helium will, because its molecules are much larger and therefore less able to escape through the material of which the balloon is made.On the other hand, helium is much lighter so will give a balloon greater lift while it lasts.
Is a helium balloon a solid?
A helium "balloon" is composed of two parts: the SOLID rubber balloon skin, and the GASeous helium. So the balloon part itself is a solid.

What was the helium balloon balloon made of?
It was made out of the light gas gas Helium.
How much can a helium balloon lift?
depends how big the helium balloon is and how many
What makes a child's balloon rise?
Helium. The helium gas in the balloon is lighter than the air outside the balloon.
Which balloon would fly higher the one with helium or the one with air?
The balloon with helium.
