What unusual things do crocodilians eat?
Though they Are carnivores, the eat ROCKS! I think it's to help their digestion, saw it on the Discovery Channal a while back...
When is helium temperature?
The element helium can exist over a very wide range of temperatures. Helium is notable for having the lowest boiling point of any element. Liquid helium is exceptionally cold.
Is there helium in airships?
Yes. Helium isn't flammable, which makes it the safer option.
How discovered helium?
Pierre Janssen, who was a French astronomer discovered helium in 1868. It was the English astronomer Norman Lockyer who proposed the name helium after the Greek name of the sun, Helios.
What element is transformed in solar fusion?
Our sun mostly transforms hydrogen nuclei into helium by fusion, but it also fuses helium with helium, lithium with hydrogen, and beryllium with hydrogen, to make elements as heavy as boron.
Does helium have any unusual properties?
It is chemically inert gas
What is unusual about helium?
Helium is a noble gas with 2 valence electrons. All other noble gases have 8 valence electrons.
What is a good catch phrase for helium?
Helium is normally a gas; at very low temperatures it does liquify, but it has no solid phase, no matter how cold it gets (it does, however, have a very unusual "superfluid" phase at temperatures approaching absolute zero).

The first element on the periodic table table of elements is helium?
No, the first element on the Periodic Table is Hydrogen, but because of its unusual behaviour it is usually placed by itself, not next to any other elements. The second element is Helium.
The discovery of cosmic microwave background radiation and primordial helium gas was scientific evidence supporting what theory?
The 'big bang' theory.
Why was the discovery of helium's emission sequence important for spectroscopy?
The spectral series are important in astronomy for detecting the presence of hydrogen and calculating red shifts.
What country was helium discovered in?
The spectral line for helium was first discovered by a French astronomer working in India during a solar eclipse. An English astronomer determine that this spectral line was due to a previously unknown element. An Italian physicist first detected helium on Earth. A Scottish chemist, was the first to isolate helium on Earth. So where was helium discovered? Depending on how you define "discovery" it was discovered in India, France, England, Italy or Scotland.
What was so unusual about the scientific discovery of a wooly mammoth in siberia in 1999?
