Noble gases are commonly used in lighting because of their lack of chemical reactivity. Yet even better known is helium's use in balloons because it is lighter (less dense) that the surrounding air it causes the balloon to rise. Helium is sometimes used to improve the ease of breathing of Asthma sufferers. Xenon is used as an anesthetic because it can be moved quickly from the body resulting in faster recovery. Another noble gas, argon, is considered the best option for use as a dry-suit inflation gas for Scuba diving. Noble gases are being used more and more like in blimps or crisp packets.
