What is the lightest inert?

Helium is the lightest inert gas. It is a monatomic gas with an average atomic weight of about 4. The only atom lighter than that is hydrogen - which forms a diatomic gas with molecular wight of about 2 - BUT - it is anything but inert! Hydrogen is highly flammable and a commonly used reactant for a lot of syntheses. The next lightest gas that is sort of inert is nitrogen - which is quite a bit heavier - at a molecular weight of about 14. (Nitrogen is not particularly reactive at room temperature so it is often used as an "inert" gas - even though it isn't really totally inert.) The next lightest noble gas is Neon - which, although it forms a monatomic gas, has an atomic wight of about 20 - even heavier than Nitrogen.


What is An inert gas with a greater atomic mass then helium?

Helium is the lightest noble gas, so neon, argon, krypton and xenon are all heavier noble gases. Radon's also a noble gas and it's heavier than helium, but it's radioactive so is it really inert?

Was helium the lightest gas?

Why helium gas is used in weather balloons but not hydrogen?

Because helium (He) is lighter than air and not flammable like Hydrogen (H) which is the lightest element.


What is the lightest nonflammable gas?

The lightest non-flammable gas is Helium.Note: After Helium, Nitrogen technically comes next however it can burn at a very high temperature. Because of this, Neon would be the next lightest truly non-flammable gas.


Is helium known as inert?

Yes, helium is an inert gas.


A very light inert gas named after the Greek god of the sun?

Helium is the inert gas named after the Greek god of the sun, Helios. It is the second lightest element on the periodic table and is commonly used in balloons, blimps, and as a cooling agent in various applications.


Characteristics of helium?

Helium is a gas which is very light. It is the second lightest element in the universe. Helium was discovered in 1986. William Ramsay confirmed it was helium. Helium remains as gas up to 25c (77f). Helium has no taste or no color. Helium doesn't combine with other elements. It is a by product of the reaction of hydrogen in the sun.


What gas does helium falls in.?

Helium (He) is a noble (inert) gas placed in the group 18 of the Periodic Table.Helium falls in inert gas. It is stable and non-reactive.
