Is a helium balloon heavier than air filled balloon?
No. Helium is lighter than air
Is balloons filled with helium a chemical change?
A balloon is filled with helium. Athough, it can be a chemical and physical change. For example you can take the helium out of the balloon, but you cant put it back in it now that its already in the air.
Can a blimp filled with helium float in the air?
Yes, it can. Just as helium balloon will.
Which has higher density balloon filled with water or helium?
I would say an air filled balloon if you fill it with just plain air. I am basing this on the principle of osmosis and diffusion. A substance such as a gas will travel from an area of increased concentration, such as a balloon filled with helium, to an area od decreased concentration, such as the room the balloon is in. If you fill the balloon with air identicle to that in the surrounding room it negates diffusion.
Does a helium balloon work better than an air filled balloon in CD hovercraft?
yes
Why does a balloon filled with helium rise with a balloon filled with an equal volume of average atmospheric air does not?
Helium is less dense than air, which is why the helium-filled balloon floats when you let it go.
Is a helium balloon heavier than air filled balloon?
No. Helium is lighter than air
Why is that a big balloon filled with the helium floats?
Helium is lighter than air. hence helium balloon will float in air.
What makes a helium balloon fly?
A balloon filled with helium flies because helium weighs less than air.
Is a hot air balloon filled with helium?
no its filled with hot air from a fire that is lit underneath the balloon.
What is the difference between a water balloon and a normal balloon?
A water balloon is filled with water, and other balloons are filled with air or helium.
Are helium balloons more dense than air baloons?
No. At the same pressure, a helium filled balloon will be less dense than an air-filled balloon.
Is balloons filled with helium a chemical change?
A balloon is filled with helium. Athough, it can be a chemical and physical change. For example you can take the helium out of the balloon, but you cant put it back in it now that its already in the air.
Can a blimp filled with helium float in the air?
Yes, it can. Just as helium balloon will.
What will happen when you release a balloon filled with helium in the air?
it will keep going up and the wind will take it somewhere very far away and when the helium runs out it comes down
How does a helium balloon float but not a balloon filled with air?
Helium is a lighter element compared to air, helium also has fewer molecules than air.
Why does helium rise and regular air sink?
A balloon filled with helium floats and a balloon filled with regular air falls to the ground because helium has less density than air so the air causes the balloon to sink because there are more molecules in it. The helium has less molecules in it so the balloon rises.
