You can use the ideal gas equation to work this out. If the pressure, temperature and volume of the ball are both the same, then it's known that the number of moles of gas is going to be the same. Helium however has a molar mass of 4.0026g per mole whereas air (which is a mixture of mainly nitrogen, oxygen and argon) has a higher molar mass and so the ball would weigh more (by a few grams). Assuming no wind, the helium ball would travel further.
What else can I help you with?
Does compressed air go faster than helium?
Speed is not determined by the composition of a gas. Too may other variables. As phrased, there is no answer possible to your question. Will helium seep out of a balloon faster than air? Yes. Go faster? Explain your question.
Why would a ping pong ball go farther with holes in it then with no holes?
The holes reduce the air resistance acting on the ball by allowing air to flow through them. This decreases the drag force on the ball, enabling it to travel farther than a ball without holes.
Why does a helium balloon float in the air rathen than sink?
because helium is ligter than air
Why do helium balloons float better than just air balloons?
helium is less dense than air. :) so helium will float better than air
Is a helium balloon heavier than air filled balloon?
No. Helium is lighter than air
Which will travel farther a soccer ball full of helium or a soccer ball full of air?
This has actually been tested on the "Mythbusters" television program, only with American footballs. The answer is that it really doesn't matter much because the weight of the ball and air resistance include forces that far exceed the difference that air density versus helium density might cause.
Will the helium soccer ball bounce higher than a soccer ball filled with air?
A helium-filled soccer ball will not bounce higher than a soccer ball filled with air. While helium is lighter than air, the elasticity and structural integrity of the ball's material are more crucial for how high it bounces. A soccer ball filled with air is typically more pressurized and better able to maintain its shape, leading to a higher bounce. Therefore, the air-filled soccer ball is likely to perform better in terms of bounce height.

Do golf balls fly farther at higher elevation?
well yes a soccer ball with more air will go further than a soccer ball with no air
Why would a ping pong ball go farther with holes in it then with no holes?
The holes reduce the air resistance acting on the ball by allowing air to flow through them. This decreases the drag force on the ball, enabling it to travel farther than a ball without holes.
Is air heavy than helium?
Yes. air is heavier than helium.
Why does a helium balloon float in the air rathen than sink?
because helium is ligter than air
Why does small ball go farther than big ball when you throw it?
A smaller ball can travel farther when thrown due to its lower air resistance compared to a larger ball. The smaller size allows it to cut through the air more easily, experiencing less drag and allowing it to maintain its velocity over a longer distance.
Why do helium balloons float better than just air balloons?
helium is less dense than air. :) so helium will float better than air
Is a helium balloon heavier than air filled balloon?
No. Helium is lighter than air
Why does a helium balloom float in air?
Helium is lighter than air. so balloons filled with helium will float in air
What has more density air or helium?
The density of helium is less than the density of air. You can infer this without doing any calculations by thinking about the classic example of inhaling the helium from a balloon and talking. Your voice gets squeeky high because helium is less dense than air - that is, your sound waves propagate faster through helium than through air, therefore helium is less dense.
