    Gases are highly compressible because their particles are widely spaced and have weak intermolecular forces. In contrast, solids and liquids have closely packed particles with strong intermolecular forces, limiting their compressibility. Gases can be compressed significantly because their particles can be pushed closer together with relatively little force, leading to volume reduction.

  2. Aside from helium, alternative gases like hydrogen or nitrogen can also be used to fill balloons. However, each gas has different properties and safety considerations, so the choice depends on factors such as cost, availability, and intended use.

  4. The number of balloons that can be filled from a single cylinder of gas depends on factors such as the size of the balloons and the pressure of the gas. On average, a standard helium cylinder can fill approximately 50 to 100 balloons.
