C05-0019. Helium is used for lighter-than-air blimps, whereas argon is used to exclude air from flasks in which air-sensitive syntheses are performed. Calculate the densities of these two noble gases at 295 K and 1.0 atm, and explain why the two gases have different uses. [Pg.306]

But even those who can t afford a trip on the new Zeppelin may benefit from airship technology. The Japanese are designing blimps, which will float at an altitude of 65,000 feet and will be used to reflect waves used in cellular phone communication. The blimp s skin will be made of pvc coated with polyethylene, and the ship will be kept aloft for years. So we may yet see a revival of the great airships — with various new safety features. But, contrary to popular opinion, these great ships... [Pg.210]

Helium gas is twice as dense as hydrogen under the same conditions. However, because its density is still very low and it is nonflammable, it is used to provide buoyancy in airships such as blimps. Helium is also used to dilute the oxygen used in deep-sea diving, to pressurize rocket fuels, as a coolant, and in helium-neon lasers. The element has the lowest boiling point of any substance (4.2 K), and it does not freeze to a solid at any temperature unless pressure is applied to hold the light, mobile atoms... [Pg.881]

Today, airships, or blimps, are filled with helium. Helium, like hydrogen, is lighter than air but unlike hydrogen, helium is a noble gas and is chemically inert, or inactive. The helium does not combust. [Pg.46]

The following is a list of items that were reported to significantly have altered fat to muscle ratios quickly. Any one or combination of these items has been successfully utilized to reduce fat stores. All of these are explained within this book to some extent or boringly in depth. I plan to write an update in the future on training /diet/supplemental strategies that shredded most anyone in 28-42 day unless they were a blimp. [Pg.212]

For an inactive gas, helium has a surprising number of applications. It is used in low-temperamre research, for filling balloons and dirigibles (blimps), to pressurize rocket fuels, in welding operations, in lead detection systems, in neon signs, and to protect objects from reacting with oxygen. [Pg.240]

Helium is also used to inflate balloons and other lighter-than-air craft, such as dirigibles (blimps). Helium does not have the lifting power of hydrogen. However, hydrogen is flammable and helium is not. [Pg.245]

At one time, people thought that dirigibles would be a popular form of transportation. But that never happened. Blimps are still used for limited purposes, such as advertising at major sports and recreational events. [Pg.245]

The noble gases make up Group 18 of the periodic table. Helium, whose low density makes it ideal for use in blimps, is an example of a noble gas. [Pg.145]

The stable noble gases are used in lighter-than-air blimps, in neon lights, as a substitute for nitrogen in diving tanks, and as an inert atmosphere for welding. [Pg.205]
