A: Helium balloons float because they are less dense than the surrounding air, which causes them to rise. Gravity acts on helium balloons the same way it does on the surrounding air; it has no effect on whether the balloon floats or not. It all comes down to relative densities. Continue Reading
I'm guessing that the bigger the balloon, the better it will float? Yes - the more weight it will lift off the ground. Note that at high altitudes in Utah and Colorado, some foil balloons won't float; because of the low air pressure above 5500 feet, the buoyant effect of the helium is decreased. Water vapor in the air (humidity) lowers the molecular weight of the air and decreases the buoyant effect of the helium.
