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 much helium is in a balloon that contains 0.54 grams of helium gas?

4 g of Helium will have 6.023 x 1023 atoms and will occupy 22.414 liters. So, 0.54 g of Helium will have 0.37 x 1023 atoms and will occupy 3.03 liters.

Is a helium balloon a solid?

A helium "balloon" is composed of two parts: the SOLID rubber balloon skin, and the GASeous helium. So the balloon part itself is a solid.


Why does a CO2 filled balloon deflate quicker than a helium filled balloon given that helium atoms are smaller and monatomic?

Well...it's because they're not the same balloons. There is a product out there called Super Hi-Float. You coat the inside of a balloon destined to be filled with helium with it, and it helps seal the pores of the latex hence holding the helium in longer. You probably wouldn't do this with a balloon you're going to fill with CO2.

Why helium leaks out of a balloon?

The latex balloon and to a lesser extent mylar, also, is actually porous and has tiny tiny spaces between the latex molecules. The molecules do not fit together with no space between them, and the helium molecules are so small that they are able to fit between the molecules of the balloon and float out and away.
