Which gas inflates a balloon the longest carbon dioxide or helium and why?
Carbon dioxide will keep a balloon inflated longer than helium will, because its molecules are much larger and therefore less able to escape through the material of which the balloon is made.On the other hand, helium is much lighter so will give a balloon greater lift while it lasts.
How much weight can a balloon hold?
The lifting capacity of a balloon depends on its size, shape, and the type of gas used to inflate it. Typically, a small helium-filled balloon can lift a few grams, while larger balloons can lift several pounds. Specialized balloons used for scientific purposes or hot air balloons can lift much heavier loads.
How much wight can one balloon hold?
The amount of weight a balloon can hold depends on the size and type of balloon. A standard latex balloon can typically hold a few grams of weight before bursting, while a large helium-filled foil balloon can hold several ounces. It is important to check the manufacturer's guidelines for each specific type of balloon to ensure safe handling.
Why does wet helium balloons fall?
Helium filled balloons eventually fall because the helium molecules escape from the envelope of the balloon, both at the neck of the balloon and through the material of the balloon itself. The same occurs with air-filled balloons but air-filled balloons do not float to begin with -- they fall to the ground no matter how much air you put in them. In order to float, the gas within the balloon must be lighter (less dense) than the gas outwith the balloon. Inflating a balloon with the same density of gas that surrounds it will not make it float upward because the weight of the balloon alone will make it fall under gravity. Moreover, the elasticity of the balloon compresses the gas within, making it much denser, and therefore heavier.
How much helium is needed to lift 400 pounds?
To lift 400 pounds, you would need approximately 74.3 cubic feet of helium. Helium is lighter than air, so it provides lift when contained in a balloon.
How much do helium balloons carry?
How much a helium balloon carries depends on the size of the balloon.
How much can a helium balloon lift?
depends how big the helium balloon is and how many
Assume you fill a 22.4 liter balloon with helium gas how much would the gas inside weigh?
The weight of the helium gas inside the balloon can be calculated using its molar mass, the Ideal Gas Law, and the given volume. Assuming standard conditions, helium gas has a molar mass of 4 grams per mole. Thus, a 22.4 liter balloon filled with helium gas would weigh approximately 32 grams.
How much do you need to open a balloon shop?
a tank of helium and alot of those balloon thingy's
How much does a blimp weigh?
An empty blimp can weigh as much as 12,840 pounds. This is without being filled with helium. When full of helium the blimp may only weigh as much as 200 pounds.
How much does a water balloon weigh?
it depends on the size
How much does a balloon fish weigh?
About 67 ounces
How much helium is in a balloon that contains 0.54 grams of gas?
0.54 grams 1 mol = mass / Mr = mass / 4 (Helium's atomic weight is 4, it is a monoatomic gas) 1 mol = 0.54 / 4 = 0.00135 # of molecules of helium in the balloon = 0.00135 * 6.02 * 10^23
Can you fill a basketball with helium?
Soccer balls do not contain helium. if they did, they would float like a balloon! Actually, that's not true. A soccer ball would NOT float like a balloon--they weigh too much. It would, however, increase the distance ever so slightly over that of a regular air filled soccer ball. Eventually over time, the helium would dissipate, much like a helium balloon that slowly falls to the ground.

How much does the Jimmy Neutron Balloon weigh?
456 pounds
How much does a helium balloon weigh on the moon?
A 30cm balloon (fairly standard party balloon) holds about 8 liters of helium at 1 atmosphere and weighs itself around 3 grams (latex) on earth. 8 Liters of Helium would weigh about 1.4 grams at 1g. So a balloon would weigh in at 3 grams plus 1.4 grams times .16 (the gravity on the surface of the moon) or .7grams. Of course, the whole experiment would be moot since lacking an atmosphere, your balloon would very instantly expand and burst once you exposed it to hard vacuum. But assuming your party balloon was made of some very SUPER latex, well then... there you go. Alas, note also that even the super latex wouldn't help to make it fun, since, lacking any atmosphere to be bouyant in, even your very very light balloon would still drop like a rock at a little bit over five feet per second per second just like everything else on that airless world.
