First, Helium does not chemically combine with other elements.
Second, Helium is a very light weight (low density) gas that tends to rise in the atmosphere and eventually escape from the gravitational field of the Earth.
Last, there are very few sources for the production of Helium. Some radioactive elements release Alpha particles which eventually become Helium atoms after capturing electrons.
Helium is a very light gas that is non-flammable so it is primarily used for balloons. However, it is also mixed into oxygen for Scuba diving at certain levels.
Yes, helium has been used in blimps as a lifting gas. Helium is less dense than air, which allows it to provide buoyancy and help the blimps stay afloat. However, today, most blimps use a combination of helium for lift and air for control and propulsion.
Helium is a noble gas that is found in small amounts in the Earth's atmosphere. It is also found in natural gas deposits, primarily in the US and the Middle East. Additionally, helium can be extracted from certain radioactive minerals as a byproduct of radioactive decay.

The abbreviation for gas helium is He.
The word equation for liquid helium is: Helium gas β Liquid helium.
Yes, helium will help a balloon fly. Helium does not affect the direction that a balloon goes, but it will keep it in the air for quite some time.
Helium is lighter than air. So balloons or blimps filled with helium will rise up and float.
more importantly are you thick, it doesnt, helium diffuses through us
Helium.
Texas produces the greatest amount of helium for any US state, because one large gas field in Texas happens to have natural gas with a relatively large concentration of helium.

Helium is not inherently bad for us, but inhaling pure helium can be harmful because it displaces oxygen in our lungs, leading to asphyxiation. Inhaling helium from balloons or other containers can be risky and should be avoided.
I did an experiment, where a Plant was in a vacuum filled with helium and it died after 3 or 4 days after sprouting. I'm not sure about Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide + Helium though
It wasn't. The US was the biggest producer of helium, and didn't want to sell any to Germany. So they used Hydrogen, which is also light, but very flammable.
You don't MAKE Helium, it's a natural gas. Helium was discovered in 1895 by Sir William Ramsay. glad to help, and remember that not all element are man-made!
Helium is lighter than air, hence it will rise up in air, making things float up in the air.
