At the same temperature, helium gas will move faster due to its lower atomic weight. Helium has an atomic weight of 4g/ mol, while argon has an atomic weight of 39.95g/ mol.

How much faster does helium move than argon?

Helium moves approximately three times faster than argon at the same temperature and pressure due to its lower molecular weight. This faster movement leads to helium having higher diffusion and thermal conductivity compared to argon.


Why does helium change the pitch of your voice?

Helium is a very light gas. Light gases tend to float (as seen in a helium filled balloon). It is a light gas because it moves very very fast. It is said to be NOT dense. When you have sucked Helium in, your breath that you use to speak will pass through the Helium gas. Your breath will now be moving faster. Things that move faster tend to have higher pitch. Note: Helium does not change your vocal chords or your vocal muscles... just the speed of your breath. Also, Argon gas can make your voice sound lower. But this is dangerous because it can sink into your lungs. So I was told you should be hanging upside down if you ever want to take a sip of Argon gas. I have never done this. DO NOT ATTEMPT this. You could pass out and suffocate if no one is around you.


What gases expand?

All gases can and will expand in the right conditions.


Why does inhaling helium increase voice pitch?

Because Helium is lighter than air so when you breath it it makes your vocal chords move faster giving you an increased voice pitch


Why do molecules of gas travel faster than liquids?

Molecules of gas have higher average kinetic energy compared to molecules in liquids, which allows them to move at faster speeds. Additionally, gases have greater spacing between molecules and weaker intermolecular forces, leading to more frequent collisions and higher velocities in gases compared to liquids.

Which diffuses faster between chlorine and argon?

Chlorine diffuses faster than argon because it is a lighter and smaller molecule. This allows chlorine to move more quickly through a medium compared to argon, which is a heavier and larger molecule.

When molecules in liquids and gases are heated they move faster


What do the elements neon argon krypton and xenon have in common?

It sounds like you're listing noble gases, the members of group 18. In addition, helium and radon are members. The properties of these gases are chemically very similar to that of helium, though the physical properties, like density, change as you move up and down the group.


Why does sound travel faster in helium than in air?

Sound travels faster in helium than in air because helium is much lighter than air, which causes sound waves to travel more easily and quickly through it. The lower density of helium allows sound waves to move faster and with less resistance compared to air.


What has a higher velocity helium or oxygen?

At the same temperature and prssure in a gas the helium atoms will on average move faster than the O2 molecules.


How liquids change to gases?

When heat is added to liquid, the liquid molecules move faster They can move out of the container


How does higher temperature allow gases to dissolve faster?

The hotter it is the faster the molecules will move away from each other


What gas will diffuse faster He or Ne?

Helium (He) will diffuse faster than Neon (Ne) because helium has a lower atomic mass and smaller atomic size, making it lighter and easier to move through a medium.
