helium. a noble gas with the atomic symbol he, atomic number 2, and atomic weight 4.003. it is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that is not combustible and does not support combustion. it was first detected in the sun and is now obtained from natural gas. medically it is used as a diluent for other gases, being especially useful with oxygen in the treatment of certain cases of respiratory obstruction, and as a vehicle for general anesthetics.
