Each country will have its own colour code for gas cylinders, in the UK Helium is currently transported and stored in brown painted cylinders, however the process of changing to conform to new European regulations has already begun, these will eventually be grafite grey, with the cylinder label being the main identification for the gas within.

How much helium is in a helium tank?

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.


If you put helium into a tank will the tank get lighter?

yes it will, but not by much

Why does a steel tank filled with helium gas not rise in air?

A steel tank filled with helium gas does not rise in air because the weight of the tank and the helium gas inside is still greater than the buoyant force acting on it. The buoyant force is the force that causes objects to float in a fluid, like air. Since the tank is heavy and the helium gas is not strong enough to lift it, the tank remains on the ground.


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.

When burning helium what color is it?

When helium is burned, it produces a faint blue color. This is due to the electronic transitions that occur in the helium atoms during the combustion process.


Does helium have a oder and does it have color?

No. Helium is a odourless and colourless gas.


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.


How is it possible that the volume of a helium tank is much less that 500 balloons it can fill?

The volume of a helium tank refers to the physical space it occupies and is not directly related to the number of balloons it can fill. When the helium is released from the tank and fills the balloons, it expands to occupy a much larger volume due to the low density of helium gas compared to its liquid form in the tank. This expansion allows the helium from a tank with a small volume to fill a larger number of balloons.
