Helium can certainly become solid, just like any other element. It does have the lowest freezing point of all the elements of 1.1 K (-272.05 °C or -458 °F).
See the Web Links to the left for more information about helium.

∙ 14y agoWell, actually it does.
The thing about helium is that, no matter how cold you get it, it won't solidify at standard atmospheric pressure. (That is, 1 Bar). If you get it nice and cold, about 10K , at a pressure of about 4 Bar, it solidifies.

∙ 13y agoNo. At standard temp/pressure it is a gas. It can be supercooled to a liquid.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoHypothetically yes, only if the freezing point was above absolute zero (-273oC or zero kelvin).
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoAre you sure about that? You can go to any welding supply store in the country and buy liquid hydrogen and liquid helium. You'd have to special order them, but that's where you go.
Wiki User
∙ 7y agoYes at a very low temperature
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoNo. It cant be solid

Are all elements ending in -ium solid magnetic and metal?
Most are solid and weakly paramagnetic metals. Exception of Helium, etc.
Will nitrogen gas dissolve in helium gas?
Since they are gases, neither nitrogen or helium are technically able to dissolve in the same way that a solid dissolves in a liquid. However, if they were to mix, it would not go well because the helium would float away very quickly.
What is helium's crystal structure?
I think so because it's a gas that is used to blow up balloons
What is helium's freezing point?
Well, everything has its own unique freezing/melting and boiling. Helium, has a freezing/melting point of -310 degrees Celsius, or in other words, when it is below -310 it is a solid and when it is above -310 it is a liquid.
What are the symbols for hydrogen and helium?
The chemical symbol for helium is "He."
Is a solid and helium the same?
no. they are different. helium is a gas and is different from solid.
is helium brittle?
No. Helium is a gas, not a solid.
Is helium a brittle?
No. Helium is a gas, not a solid.
What is the liquid and solid of helium?
Above -268.93 °C, helium is gas. Below -268.93 °C, helium is liquid. Helium cannot exist as solid.
Is a helium balloon a solid?
A helium "balloon" is composed of two parts: the SOLID rubber balloon skin, and the GASeous helium. So the balloon part itself is a solid.
Is helium a gas or a solid?
helium is a gas at room temperature.
Is a helium balloon solid or gas?
Gas. Helium is a gas.
Can helium be coverted into a solid?
no. it cant be converted to solid
Is helium a solid liquid or gas roomtemp?
Under standard conditions of pressure and temperature Helium is a gas.
Is helium a solid liqud or gas at room temperature?
helium is a gas
Can a gun be made from helium?
No. Because gun is solid, helium is a gas
What is helium in a solid form?
It is possible to manipulate helium into a solid form, though technically the lowest possible temperature is too high for helium to become a solid or "Freeze". Hence pressure is also required. Helium in its solid form has a crystalline structure, and it is also quite compressible (squash able) to a large degree.
