Helium is a gas which is very light. It is the second lightest element in the universe.
Helium was discovered in 1986.
William Ramsay confirmed it was helium.
Helium remains as gas up to 25c (77f).
Helium has no taste or no color.
Helium doesn't combine with other elements.
It is a by product of the reaction of hydrogen in the sun.
Helium is an atom. Heavier elements have molecules.
The symbol of Helium is He. Helium's atomic number is 2.
The symbol for hydrogen is H, and the symbol for helium is He.
Helium shares the most characteristics with neon because both elements are in the same group on the periodic table (Noble Gases). They both have a full outer electron shell, making them stable and nonreactive.
AnswerThere are two variants of helium -- helium 3 and helium 4. Helium 4 is not magnetic but helium 3 is. Its magnetism is, however, of different nature than e.g. that of iron. The magnetism of helium 3 is used for medical lung imaging.
Helium is an inert gas. It has 2 electons.it is non reactive.
Hydrogen and helium aren't 'out' of the periodic table, hydrogen just has characteristics that match up with group one (very reactive) and helium has characteristics that match up with group 8 (non reactive).
Yes, helium gas is considered a pure substance because it is made up of only helium atoms. It is a unique element with its own distinct chemical properties and characteristics.
For Reggae to pop you must fill it with helium and then stick it with a pin
Helium is a colorless, odorless, and tasteless gas. It is the second lightest element and is non-reactive, meaning it rarely forms chemical compounds. Helium has the lowest boiling and melting points of all the elements.
When hydrogen and helium are mixed, they will not react chemically because they are both inert gases. Instead, they will form a gaseous mixture with the properties of both gases, maintaining their individual characteristics.
all noble gases such as helium, argon, krypton, xenon, radon
No, helium is not a semi-metal. It is a noble gas that exists as a monatomic gas at room temperature and does not exhibit the properties of semi-metals, which are elements that have characteristics of both metals and nonmetals.
It is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, nontoxic, and nearly inert gas that heads the noble gas series in the periodic table
Helium is classified as a non-metal. It is a noble gas and is characterized by its lack of reactivity and non-metallic properties. Unlike metalloids, which exhibit properties of both metals and non-metals, helium does not possess any metallic characteristics and exists as a gas at room temperature.
Our Sun is a star; the stars are suns. Look up "star" in Wikipedia, for example, to find out the characteristics of stars; most of these characteristics apply to our Sun. But basically, stars are huge balls of gas (or plasma, to be more accurate), usually mainly hydrogen and helium, hot and dense enough to ignite nuclear fusion (converting hydrogen into helium, at first).
Noble gases have completely filled orbitals. They generally have 8 valence electrons (helium has only 2) and have stable electronic configuration. Hence they are chemically inert and generally donot form compounds under normal conditions.
