Will a lit cigarette ignite a helium balloon?
Helium is not flammable. However, the cigarette might puncture the balloon.
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.
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.
Does a hot air balloon have helium inside it?
No, I am sorry, but there is no helium inside a hot-air balloon. Instead, there is hot 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.
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.
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.
Is the difference between helium in a jar in helium?
helium in a jar diff from helium atom
What was the helium balloon balloon made of?
It was made out of the light gas gas Helium.
How much can a helium balloon lift?
depends how big the helium balloon is and how many
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.
What makes a child's balloon rise?
Helium. The helium gas in the balloon is lighter than the air outside the balloon.
Which has the least density between ammonia air oxygen helium and chloride?
balloon
What is the difference between a helium balloon and a hot-air balloon?
A helium balloon does not need energy to rise in the air. A hot air balloon needs fuel to rise in air. That is it needs heat energy to rise in air.i love Pizza squares i hope they put helium in then one dayHelium relies on the fact that helium is lighter than air. Hot air balloons rely on the fact that hot air has less volume than cold air and is lighter than the air around it. hot air balloons use hot air to cause the balloon to lift as helium balloons use a special gas to cause lift
If gravity is always an attractive force between two objects why does a helium balloon fall up?
This is a really good question! Helium balloons 'fall' up because helium is lighter than air. In other words, even though gravity is pulling the balloon down, the helium is so light the balloon rises.
Which balloon would fly higher the one with helium or the one with air?
The balloon with helium.
Why is that a big balloon filled with the helium floats?
Helium is lighter than air. hence helium balloon will float in air.
