What do you use helium gas for?

Answer 1

• filling party balloons as it is a much safer gas (non-flammable)
• widely used as an inert gas shield for arc welding
• high speed push gas inside air to air missiles for guidence corrections.
• protective gas in growing silicon and germanium crystals, and in titanium and zirconium production
• cooling medium for nuclear reactors, helium won't become radioactive
• a mixture of 80% helium and 20% oxygen is used as an artificial atmosphere for divers and others working under pressure
• cryogenics and superconductivity
• rare document preservation (i.e. Declaration of Independence)
• as a gas for supersonic wind tunnels
• pressurizing agent for liquid fuel rockets (inert so won't react)
• leak detection agent for extremely small leaks.
• nuclear detonation simulations (using conventional explosives)
• isotopic dating by helium ratios (seawater, ocean beds,etc)
• helium/neon lasers
• helium cardio-pulmonary resusitation pump (heart surgery)
• helium filled border patrol "AEROSTAT" monitoring blimps

helium has many uses such as balloons , advertising..

Answer 2

Helium can be used for a range of different things. Helium is renowned for the fact that it is lighter than air. This can be used for lifting probes and vehicles into the upper atmosphere. Examples of this are blimps and weather balloons. Also, helium, being the second lightest gas next to hydrogen, is very difficult to solidify or compress. The difficulty involved in the compression of helium makes it a good substance for use in shock absorbers and it's extremely hard to reach freezing point makes it a good coolant for super conductive materials.

Answer 3

Helium gas is commonly used for filling balloons, as a coolant in certain industrial processes, and in medical imaging equipment such as MRI machines. It is also utilized in rocket propulsion systems and as a shielding gas in welding applications.

Answer 4

Helium, in it's gas state, can be used for balloons.
