No. Helium is a noble gas and has a full compliment of electrons in the first 'orbit' of its atoms. This makes it very, very stable and inert. Therefore helium forms no compounds with any other element. As burning in air by definition is the reaction between the substance and oxygen in the air to form an oxide (e.g. charcoal (carbon) burns in air on your barbecue to form carbon dioxide), as helium will not react with oxygen it will not burn. Helium is also lighter than air. Therefore, helium is sometimes used to fill airships to provide a lift. Airships were once filled with hydrogen as hydrogen is also lighter than air, but several disasters happened where the airship caught fire killing the occupants inside- as hydrogen reacts well with the oxygen in the air (even explosively) form hydrogen oxide (water vapour). As helium is so inert,. it is very useful AND safe for such a use nowadays.
Helium does not burn because it is an inert gas, meaning it is chemically non-reactive. As a result, it also does not rust, which is a reaction that occurs when metals react with oxygen in the presence of moisture. Helium is a noble gas on the Periodic Table, and its stable electronic configuration prevents it from participating in chemical reactions like burning or rusting.
No, helium does not rust or tarnish because it is an inert gas. Inert gases like helium do not readily react with other elements or compounds to form rust or tarnish.
Helium (and any other noble gas really)
Helium is inert. Will not burn like hydrogen does so well.
Helium does not burn because it is an inert gas, meaning it does not undergo chemical reactions like combustion.
Helium does not burn in a flame test because it is an inert gas and does not react with the flame to produce a characteristic color.
No, helium does not rust or tarnish because it is an inert gas. Inert gases like helium do not readily react with other elements or compounds to form rust or tarnish.
helium does not burn, hydrogen will burn in air
No. Helium is completely nonflammable. It is chemically inert.
No. Helium does not burn.

I think you mean Neil Young and it was Burn out than to rust.
Yes, because helium doesn't react, burn or explode.
When helium burns, it typically emits a pink or crimson light. This color can be observed in certain conditions, such as when helium is ionized or burned in a flame.

it is made of mostly hydrogen and helium
