Most Helium is derived from natural gas. Helium is formed as a by product of radioactive decay in underground rocks. Alpha radiation is composed of Helium nucleii and having grabbed some spare electrons becomes the stable gas in these underground gas domes.
Hydrogen and Helium gases will leak into outer space if released into the atmosphere and it is therefore pointless in trying to recover it from the air.
Natural gas is progressively refrigerated and as it cools various elements within it boil off at lower and lower temperatures.
Heike Kammerling Onnes was first to reach 4 degrees Kelvin(-269 degrees C) when Helium become a liquid in the late 19th century. Diffusion pumps are used to lower the pressure above the gas and then allowed to boil off. If you boil water at the summit of Mount Everest the water will never get higher than about 90 degrees centigrade before it boils because of the low air pressure at 29,000 feet.
Hope this is of help
Hydrogen gas is liquefied first than helium gas because hydrogen has a higher critical temperature and pressure than helium. This means that hydrogen can be liquefied at higher temperatures and pressures compared to helium. Helium requires lower temperatures and pressures to be liquefied, making it more challenging to achieve compared to hydrogen.
No. It takes a combination of pressure and temperature to liquefy some gases. Hydrogen and helium were the last gases to be liquefied and that was with pressure and extremely low temperature.
Nig, its because the pressure is what makes the gas, if there ain't no pressure, ain't no gas.
Helium is found in natural gas deposits underground. It is obtained through a process called fractional distillation, where crude helium is separated from natural gas. This extracted helium is then purified and liquefied for various industrial applications.
Helium is a gas at room temperature and pressure. It can be liquefied at very low temperatures (-269°C) and becomes a liquid at that point. Helium does not exist in a solid state under normal conditions.

Helium is a noble gas and is very stable, so it does not readily dissolve in other substances. It is not soluble in water or most solvents at normal conditions. Helium can be stored in containers under pressure or liquefied at very low temperatures.
Ammonia gas can be easily liquefied due to its relatively low critical temperature and pressure. In contrast, helium has a critical temperature and pressure that are very close to absolute zero, making it difficult to liquefy at standard temperatures and pressures.
because that's what it is?Liquefied Petroleum Gas = LPG
by compressing it
Many powders and solids can be melted (liquefied) by heat. For instance, sugar and butter is often melted in cooking.
Hydrogen and helium have low boiling points, which are near absolute zero. Achieving temperatures this low is extremely challenging and energy-intensive, making it difficult to liquefy these gases. Additionally, at such low temperatures, the materials used to contain the gases would become brittle and may fail.
