wel helium isn't air so if you don't take a breth or to after you inhale some u could sofacate. slowly as u in hale helium u get lightheaded and then pass out. at a b-day of mine a friend kept inhaling baloons and passed out 4 times but he was fine. it can also make u a little nuts (for like an hour or so) and make u forgetful. almost evryone there had like 10 baloons and woke up the next day forgeting half the night (there where no drinks at the party all heluum) but its fun
Helium itself is inert and non-toxic, so it does not harm the environment. However, helium is a non-renewable resource and can contribute to equipment and energy consumption in its extraction and production, which can impact the environment.
Helium is safe because it is non-toxic, non-flammable, and does not react with other chemicals. It is lighter than air, so it doesn't accumulate at ground level where it can pose inhalation risks. However, inhaling helium in large quantities can displace oxygen in the lungs, leading to asphyxiation.
The symbol of Helium is He. Helium's atomic number is 2.
The symbol for hydrogen is H, and the symbol for helium is He.
AnswerThere are two variants of helium -- helium 3 and helium 4. Helium 4 is not magnetic but helium 3 is. Its magnetism is, however, of different nature than e.g. that of iron. The magnetism of helium 3 is used for medical lung imaging.
in extreme exposure or long term inhalation it can cause internal bleeding and liver failure resulting in death
A mixture of oxygen with nitrogen or helium.
Inhalation of fumes and gases can be very harmful. In addition to the danger of fainting or passing out, it can cause organ damage. In some cases it has been known to cause death.
Most certainly, inhalation of naphthalene is dangerous!
Yes helium can cause seizures i was sucking helium and i got dizzy started drooling and blacked out.
A little helium isn't harmful, but inhaling an entire balloon-full can block oxygen to your brain, which might cause you to pass out. There has been at least one death from breathing helium from a pressurized tank instead of a balloon, too.
I have never known anyone speak of a medical term for drowning, so I will make one up for you. Water inhalation asphyxia? On a death certificate, "drowning" is a mode of death and not a cause. Therefore it would not be put on it.
Yes; any smoking or inhalation of smoke can cause coughing and wheezing. Second-hand smoke has the same potential to cause coughing and wheezing as does direct inhalation.
No, helium is not a cause of global warming. Helium is an inert gas and does not react with other substances in the atmosphere to contribute to the greenhouse effect.
Inhaling helium can displace oxygen in the lungs, leading to a lack of oxygen in the bloodstream, which can result in dizziness, shortness of breath, and potentially lead to suffocation. It is important to avoid inhaling helium as a party trick or for any purpose other than in regulated medical settings.
Yes. Helium itself is non-toxic, but as with all gasses it takes up space and so can push other gasses, including oxygen, out of the way. If you breathe helium without adequate oxygen yo can die in a matter of minutes. However helium taken with an adequate supply of oxygen is harmless.
Yes - inhalation of asbestos dust can cause scarring of the lungs known as asbestosis. Please see the related link below for examples of how inhalation of dust can cause respiratory problems.
