how are the uses of noble gases linked to their properties?
helium: lifting gas because it is less dense than air and non flammable so it has a low density and is inert
argon, krypton and xenon: filling gas, inertness stops the metal filament burning away but keeps it hot enough to glow
argon: shield gas, denser than air so it keeps the air away form the metal and its inertness means the metal doe snot oxidise
