Helium is an inert gas, because the first electron shell is filled with two electrons, which means that no valence bonding is possible. Therefore, helium will not react with any other element.

Helium and Oxygen are different chemical elements, so no there are no chemical process that can convert one into the other. Nuclear processes inside stars can convert Helium into heavier elements such as Carbon and Oxygen, but these are beyond the range of current or planned thermonuclear reactors, as they require much higher temperatures and pressures than for conversion of Hydrogen into Helium.

Helium does not react with oxygen or any other elements. Helium is a noble gas with a full outer electron shell, making it very stable and unreactive.

What is made from 15g of oxygen and 5g of helium?

There isn't a specific compound that can be made using 15g of oxygen and 5g of helium, as oxygen and helium do not readily react with each other to form compounds. However, both oxygen and helium are gases at standard conditions.


What bond does helium and oxygen form?

Normally none as helium is an Inert Gas which does not react with other elements.


Can water and helium be coverted in oxygen?

No. Helium does not react with anything and oxygen is an element: you cannot get an element by combining substances. You can, however, split water apart into hydrogen and oxygen.


Does helium react with common compounds?

Helium is a noble gas and is inert, meaning it does not react with common compounds like oxygen, nitrogen, or carbon dioxide. Helium is chemically stable and does not form compounds easily due to its full outer electron shell.

What is a non example of oxygen?

A non-example of oxygen could be helium, as it is an inert gas that does not readily react with other elements to form compounds or support combustion like oxygen does.
