The air is made up of different elements, such a oxygen, carbon dioxide, nitrogen and argon. On the Periodic Table, you can see that the relative Atomic Mass is bigger for these elements that that of helium. Relative atomic mass is not the actual weight of the atom, that would be too hard to find. Therefore scientists use this to show how big some atoms are compared to others.
I', unsure, but I think the helium atom has an RAM of 2, and oxygen for example has a RAM of 16.
Therefore, helium is lighter.
That's why balloons float. How super.
What else can I help you with?
Is helium lighter or heavier?
Helium is lighter than air
Is helium lighter than earth?
yes. helium is lighter than earth or even air.
Why does a helium balloom float in air?
Helium is lighter than air. so balloons filled with helium will float in air
Why do helium-filled balloons float up in the air?
Helium is lighter than air.
Why will helium filled balloons float in the air?
Because helium is lighter than air.
When balloons are filled with this they are lighter than air?
Hot air, hydrogen or helium are lighter than cold air.
How does helium make a balloon rise when air doesn'?
Helium is lighter than air. So helium balloon rises in air.
Is a helium balloon heavier than air filled balloon?
No. Helium is lighter than air
What is helium and What is its use for?
its the 2nd element on the periodic table and it makes things lighter, such as helium balloons, which float as helium is lighter than air
Why does a helium balloon go up?
A helium balloon floats because helium gas is lighter than air. By filling a balloon with helium, the balloon also becomes lighter than air. The helium balloon floats for the same reason that objects float on water: objects less dense than water are pushed up by buoyant forces equal to the weight of water displaced by that object. What happens in water also happens in air, and the helium balloon is pushed upwards by a force equal to the weight of air it displaces.
What are helium's practical uses?
Helium is lighter than air. So balloons or air ships filled with helium will float.
Why is that a big balloon filled with the helium floats?
Helium is lighter than air. hence helium balloon will float in air.
