If you wanted to make a balloon float in the air which gas should you use to fill the balloon?
Helium gas is lighter than air and hence balloons filled with helium will float in air.
Can you describe a balloon without using the words float deflate or air?
A balloon is an object that hovers and move with the wind.
What method is used to separate noble gases and air?
Fractional distillation is used to separate noble gases and air, by first liquifying the air and allowing the individual gasses to evaporate out at their respective boiling temperatures.
Can a blimp filled with helium float in the air?
Yes, it can. Just as helium balloon will.
Why does a helium balloon float up when it is released?
Because helium is lighter than air. So helium balloon will rise up.
Why inside balloon is a gas?
Its filled with gas because certain gases(Helium, Hydrogen) are lighter than air so they float. That's why the balloon floats.
Why inside balloon is gas?
Its filled with gas because certain gases(Helium, Hydrogen) are lighter than air so they float. That's why the balloon floats.
Why can't a hot air balloon float in outer space?
The key word there is float. There is nothing in space for a hot air balloon to float on.
Why do hot air balloons float in the air?
Hot air rises and the fire in the hot air balloon wants to go up and float in the air and since it's can't escape the balloon the fire just brings the balloon with it to float in the air
What gases are in a balloons?
Hydrogen or helium are used. As they are lighter than air that's why they float in air when filled in a balloon. Also, sometimes oxygen and carbon dioxide from your lungs, if you blew the balloon up with your mouth.
Can you make a balloon that float in air?
Fill a balloon part way with helium, make an animal out of it and have it float.
Why doesnt a balloon float with your air?
The air from your lungs has the same density as the air in our atmosphere. As a result a balloon inflated by a human using their lungs is unable to float.
Why there are gases in the balloon?
To inflate the balloon. Whether the gas is helium or just air from your lungs, gases are needed to inflate the balloon.
Which gas do you put in a balloon to make it float?
Usually helium, the lightest noble gas. You can make a balloon or bag float with hydrogen gas, but it is flammable. Pure nitrogen is only slightly lighter than air, so it would not lift very effectively.
Why do balloons filled with air not float?
Because air is not as dense as helium filed gallons so they won't float
How does heilum make a balloon float?
Heilum combined with the light material of the balloon make it as light as air making it float.
Can dry ice float a hot air balloon?
No. Dry ice is frozen carbon dioxide, which is heavier than air, so wont float a balloon.
