I think thhat it just goes until it pops and i don't think it could even go that far!'

Does a balloon filled with heleum depend on gravity?
I am not sure what you mean by 'depend' (please try and make your questions clear) but if you mean does the fact that a helium filled balloon will float (or rise) depend on gravity? Then the answer is Yes. if you were to take a helium filled balloon to the space station and release it inside, it would not rise, it would behave just the same as if you released a bunch of keys.
What was the Solar system's space filled with?
Before the formation of the planets and the Sun, the volume of space where these bodies coalesced was filled with gas (Hydrogen, Helium) and dust (remains from earlier stellar explosions)
Where does the helium that is formed during the hydrogen fusion go?
Helium is a gas that comes from underground in the earth so you would have to dig and then catch it before it rises because helium rises fast
What happens to a balloon if it goes in space?
the oxygen of the ballon will be gone and the ballon will get pop when the space try to elimate the oxygen. So it will pop
How much helium would it take to lift the space shuttle into space?
It won't - at some time the balloon would burst or become the same density as the atmosphere, so stop rising. The above answer is correct. At about 110,000 feet or ~ 21+ miles (when the shuttle was well into the stratosphere) the balloon will burst. However to get the space shuttle into the stratosphere it would take 2,029,203,000 liters of helium and would cost approximately $ 146,102,616. Assumptions: Space shuttle weighs: 2,029,203 KG 1 Liter of helium can lift ~ 1 gram. Helium costs approximately 7.2 cents per gram. According to the NASA website it costs $450,000,000 to launch a shuttle. Maybe they should look into using helium to get them the first 20 miles.
What will a helium filled balloon do in space?
the ballon would explode when it is in space, because the is almost nothing in space. so the helium atoms would spread and the balloon would pop.

A balloon filled with helium pops in a classroom what space does thelium occupy?
The helium would take up the whole space of the classroom because it is a gas. A gas can expand as far as it likes because it has an indefinite shape and volume.
Is helium in a balloon an example of matter?
Matter is anything that has volume and occupies space. Helium (in balloon) is a gas and has both these properties. So. it is an example of matter.
He hollow space in the middle of bones is filled with?
bone marrow
Could you use helium to float an item into space?
No, air pressure increases as the balloon goes up, so the balloon will pop and fall to the ground. You can get high up in the atmosphere (but you need a LOT of helium and a balloon that can get VERY big) you will not reach "outer" space beyond the Earth's atmosphere.
Will a balloon pop in space?
That depends on how much air is in the balloon and how high the temperature gets. As the sun shines, it heats the air in the balloon. This causes the air to expand. This air pushes against the insides of the ballon making it swell up and stretch. If there is enough air in the balloon and the temperature increases to a high enough level, then the air pressure can get to high, it will cause the balloons skin to stretch to far and the balloon can pop.
If you burst a balloon where would the helium go?
Into the atmosphere. I understand that, being a very light gas, the helium would gradually diffuse into outer space.
Why does a helium filled balloon flaot up when released?
There is a difference in the density of the gas on the outside and inside. Helium molecules naturally are spaced further apart than nitrogen and oxygen. (N and O are the main components of air) Being further apart makes them less dense than the air. The denser air fill in the space below the balloon and pushes upward. A simple experiment: Find an empty soda bottle with a lid. Fill a large bowl 3/4 full of water. The water is the "air" in our experiment and the soda bottle is the "balloon". Can you push the soda bottle to the bottom of the bowl? What happens when you let go? Water is more dense than air and the same thing that happens to the soda bottle happens to the helium balloon. A side note: Hot air is less dense than cold air. A hot air balloon uses this same method to float passengers.
Could a helium balloon float all the way up into space?
NO! all gas's volume depends on temperature, as the balloon goes up, its volume decreases, resulting in it no longer floating after a certain hight, after that, it will come down and expand again, repeating this process until it losses enough air to land, or another factor interferes with it.
What is between the helium atoms in a helium balloon?
When you look at atoms at that small of a level, between them you actually have empty space- nothing at all like in space. Even between the nucleus and its electrons of an atom itself there is a lot of empty space.
How can you determine that helium takes up space?
There are undoubtedly some molecules of helium scattered around in the space between the stars and dust clouds, as there are atoms of other elements, but for all practical purposes space can be treated as a vacuum - a place where there are no atoms of any kind.
