Yes. air is heavier than helium.
Helium is a gas that is lighter than air. Iron is a solid metal and is heavy.
Helium is classified as a light element because it has a low atomic mass compared to other elements like oxygen or iron. It is lighter than air, which is why helium-filled balloons float.
because helium is ligter than air
helium is less dense than air. :) so helium will float better than air
No, it wouldn't work the matteral is too heavy
No. Helium is lighter than air
Helium is lighter than air. so balloons filled with helium will float in air
The density of helium is less than the density of air. You can infer this without doing any calculations by thinking about the classic example of inhaling the helium from a balloon and talking. Your voice gets squeeky high because helium is less dense than air - that is, your sound waves propagate faster through helium than through air, therefore helium is less dense.
Helium has a lower density than air.
Helium is lighter than air. So helium balloon rises in air.
Helium is lighter than air. So it will float in air.
The density of a helium balloon is less than that of the surrounding air. This is why helium balloons float in the air. Helium is lighter than the nitrogen and oxygen that make up the majority of Earth's atmosphere, so it provides buoyancy for the balloon.
