It is extremely light and non-flammable so ideal for balloons. It is an ideal carrier gas for Gas Chromatograhy for laboratories all over the world. At certain pressures when Scuba diving it is used with oxygen to breathe.

Does helium help the balloon fly?

Yes, helium will help a balloon fly. Helium does not affect the direction that a balloon goes, but it will keep it in the air for quite some time.


How does helium help flight?

Helium is lighter than air. So balloons or blimps filled with helium will rise up and float.


Will you fly if you inhale helium?

more importantly are you thick, it doesnt, helium diffuses through us


What is the type of gas us used in balloons?

Helium.


what state in the US produces the greatest amount of helium and why?

Texas produces the greatest amount of helium for any US state, because one large gas field in Texas happens to have natural gas with a relatively large concentration of helium.


Why is helium bad for us?

Helium is not inherently bad for us, but inhaling pure helium can be harmful because it displaces oxygen in our lungs, leading to asphyxiation. Inhaling helium from balloons or other containers can be risky and should be avoided.

Does helium help plants grow?

I did an experiment, where a Plant was in a vacuum filled with helium and it died after 3 or 4 days after sprouting. I'm not sure about Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide + Helium though


Why did the hindenburg not use helium?

It wasn't. The US was the biggest producer of helium, and didn't want to sell any to Germany. So they used Hydrogen, which is also light, but very flammable.


What year was helium made in?

You don't MAKE Helium, it's a natural gas. Helium was discovered in 1895 by Sir William Ramsay. glad to help, and remember that not all element are man-made!


What is the significance of the helium energy level diagram in understanding the electronic structure of helium?

The helium energy level diagram helps us understand how electrons are arranged in the helium atom. It shows the different energy levels that electrons can occupy, and how they are filled according to the rules of quantum mechanics. This diagram is important because it helps us predict the behavior of helium and other elements based on their electronic structure.


How does helium help balloons?

Helium is lighter than air, hence it will rise up in air, making things float up in the air.
