How much do helium balloons carry?

How much a helium balloon carries depends on the size of the balloon.


How is it possible that the volume of a helium tank is much less that 500 balloons it can fill?

The volume of a helium tank refers to the physical space it occupies and is not directly related to the number of balloons it can fill. When the helium is released from the tank and fills the balloons, it expands to occupy a much larger volume due to the low density of helium gas compared to its liquid form in the tank. This expansion allows the helium from a tank with a small volume to fill a larger number of balloons.


Is inhaling helium out of 2 balloons ok?

Inhaling helium from balloons can be dangerous as it can displace oxygen in your lungs, leading to oxygen deprivation which can be harmful or even life-threatening. It can also cause dizziness, lightheadedness, and in extreme cases, unconsciousness or asphyxiation. It is not recommended to inhale helium from balloons.


is helium used in air balloons?

It can be, but usually not. Helium is a bit expensive, and it'd cost too much for most balloonists to use it. It's cheaper to use a hot air balloon. helium is lighter than air. hence balloons filled will helium will float in air.


Explain why helium-filled Mylar-foil balloons can float freely for several weeks but latex balloons for less than 24-hours?

Helium is not only very light, it is also monatomic, it's particles are all made up of a single atom. Air molecules, oxygen, and nitrogen mainly are larger and hevier and diffuse through much more slowly.

What noble gas is used in party balloons and weather balloons because it is lighter than air?

Helium is the noble gas used in party balloons and weather balloons because it is lighter than air. Its low density makes it ideal for filling balloons as it provides buoyancy without adding much weight.

Helium is used in balloons because?

Helium is used in balloons because it is much less dense than air, allowing the balloons to float and is completely nontoxic and nonflammable unlike hydrogen, which is otherwise a superior lifting gas.


How is the helium in the tank different from the helium in the balloon?

Helium balloons are usually mylar, a metal-coated plastic film while blow-up balloons are usually latex. Helium balloons are usually filled with helium of a decent purity, while blow-up balloons basically have the same gas mixture as the atmosphere around us. A little less oxygen and a little higher humidity if inflated by humans, exactly the same if inflated by a pump. Helium balloons will fly or float in the air, while blow-up balloons won't.
