Overview:
Helium is a chemical element with the symbol He and atomic number 2. It is a noble gas in Group 18 of the periodic table and is the second lightest element after hydrogen. Helium is known for its non-reactive nature and is widely used in various industries due to its unique properties.
Key Properties and Uses:
Non-flammability: Helium does not support combustion, making it an ideal replacement for flammable gases like hydrogen in applications such as balloon and airship inflation.
Low Solubility in Blood: This characteristic makes helium useful in breathing mixtures for deep-sea diving to prevent nitrogen narcosis and decompression sickness.
Cryogenic Applications: Helium has the lowest boiling point of any element and is essential for cooling superconducting magnets used in MRI machines and other scientific equipment.
Leak Detection: Due to its small atomic radius, helium can be used in leak detection systems where it is introduced into a system and detected by a helium-sensitive mass spectrometer.
Welding and Metal Fabrication: Helium provides an inert atmosphere that protects metal from oxidation during welding and cutting processes.
Aerospace: Used in pressurizing liquid propellant tanks in space launch vehicles and as a coolant for rocket engines.
Safety Considerations:
While helium itself is non-toxic, it can displace oxygen and cause asphyxiation in enclosed spaces. Proper ventilation is necessary when using helium. In addition, high-pressure cylinders should be handled with care to avoid injury from accidental release of pressure.
