The amount of helium in a tank depends on how big the tank is (volume), the pressure of the helium and its temperature. It is calculated from the ideal gas equation with allowance for compressibility.

How much does a helium tank cost?

How is it possible that the volume of a helium tank is much less that 500 balloons it can fill?
The gas in the tank is under much greater pressure than in the balloons. In other words, the He atoms in the tank are much closer together than in the balloons.
Why does a steel tank filled with helium gas not rise in air?
A steel tank is hevier than the helium so it holds it down.
Will a helium tank explode in cold weather?
No. Firstly, helium will not explode chemically as it is inert. Secondly, if you wanted to increase the pressure in the tank, you'd have to heat it, not cool it. If the tank material were faulty, it might conceivably crack but in that case the helium would just escape.
Where are the particles of helium farthest apart in a tank or in a balloon?
The particles of helium are farthest apart in a balloon.
If you put helium into a tank will the tank get lighter?
yes it will, but not by much

Where could I rent a helium tank?
party city Instead of renting a helium tank, why don't you buy one! go for a Disposable helium tank. If you need it for a party this would be the best for you. just go to partybell.com and get one on a lowest price.
If you have a tank that holds volume capacity of thirty gallons how do you convert that to find the volume capacity of helium?
Thirty gallons of anything is thirty gallons. Maybe you're asking about compressing helium, but you need to say what pressure you're using and what temperature, to determine how much helium will fit into a 30 gallon tank.
Why can a small tank of helium gas fuel 700 balloons?
Because the particles of helium in the tank are farther apart than particles in the balloon

How do you get helium in the balloon?
You have to first obtain a helium tank and then affix the balloon to the nozzle of the tank and turn on the valve, releasing the compressed helium into the container ie. Balloon. But do not leave the tank in direct sunlight, near open flames or sparks and do not shoot it with a Bushmaster ACR battle rifle.
