What else can I help you with?
What temp does helium boil at?
Helium boils at a temperature of -268.9 degrees Celsius (-452 degrees Fahrenheit).
What will boil first oxygen argon helium xenon?
Oxygen. Are you working on that STAR Science section practice (Question 6 in Physical Science section)?
Do all liquids boil?
No. There are liquids that boil at a few degrees above absolute zero (helium for example) and liquids that boil at several thousand degrees above absolute zero (tungsten for example)
Which liquid boils the quickest?
Liquid helium in the helium I phase boils at about 5 K, lower than any other substance. (Liquid helium in the helium II phase does not boil, it simply evaporates. Helium is truly weird stuff at very low temperatures.)
Does argon boil at a higher temperature than helium?
Yes, argon boils at a higher temperature than helium. Argon boils at -185.86°C whereas helium boils at -268.9°C.
What are two elements that boil at a temperature below zero?
Two elements that boil at a temperature below zero degrees Celsius are helium and hydrogen. Helium boils at -268.9 degrees Celsius, while hydrogen boils at -252.9 degrees Celsius.
What would happen if you poured liquid helium into liquid nitrogen?
If you pour liquid helium into liquid nitrogen, the helium will not mix with the nitrogen and will instead form separate layers. Helium is lighter than nitrogen and has a lower boiling point, so the helium will tend to float on top of the nitrogen.
Liquid nitrogen is -320 degrees does it have heat energy?
yes. It would cause liquid helium to boil if you mixed them.
Does Ar boil at a higher temperature than He?
Yes, argon (Ar) has a boiling point of -186°C, while helium (He) has a boiling point of -268.9°C, meaning helium boils at a lower temperature than argon.
How do you make a pure sample of krypton?
Fractional Distillation. When you boil all of the water, nitrogen, oxygen, helium, and argon out of the air, you are left with krypton.
When liquid helium is exposed to room temperature it forms a gas Which best explains why this happens?
Liquid helium is very cold, with a boiling point of -268.9°C. When exposed to room temperature (~20°C), the thermal energy causes the liquid helium to rapidly boil and transition into a gas state.
How is helium liquefied?
Most Helium is derived from natural gas. Helium is formed as a by product of radioactive decay in underground rocks. Alpha radiation is composed of Helium nucleii and having grabbed some spare electrons becomes the stable gas in these underground gas domes. Hydrogen and Helium gases will leak into outer space if released into the atmosphere and it is therefore pointless in trying to recover it from the air. Natural gas is progressively refrigerated and as it cools various elements within it boil off at lower and lower temperatures. Heike Kammerling Onnes was first to reach 4 degrees Kelvin(-269 degrees C) when Helium become a liquid in the late 19th century. Diffusion pumps are used to lower the pressure above the gas and then allowed to boil off. If you boil water at the summit of Mount Everest the water will never get higher than about 90 degrees centigrade before it boils because of the low air pressure at 29,000 feet. Hope this is of help
