yes it will, but not by much
No, helium has weight, but it rises when its in an expandable container such as a balloon because it is lighter than the nitrogen rich atmosphere but inside of a rigid container the helium can only add weight. (see the mythbuster's episode about the helium football)
Helium.
Helium is lighter than air
Helium is a gas that is weightless, odourless, and would make a barrel lighter.
helium
A helium tank is something used to blow balloons and if you put it in your mouth it will make your voice sound squeaky It also is very dangerous at times. it is possible that it can explode if put near fire or heat. BE VERY CAUTIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hydrogen is about 7 lighter than helium.
yes. helium is lighter than earth or even air.
Helium is lighter than hydrogen. Helium has an atomic number of 2, which means it has two protons and two neutrons in its nucleus, making it lighter than hydrogen, which has only one proton in its nucleus.
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
That all depends how much helium you put in it. A basketball should be able to take the same amount of pressure, whether it's pressure from air or helium. So, if you inflate it only to the recommended pressure, it should be a problem. The same amount of pressure of helium will be less mass, so in the end the basketball will be lighter, as you would probably expect, by a very small amount.
Holes or helium can reduce the weight of a container, if you are going down the helium route, you better make sure it is sealed.
