I wonder if helium will dissolve in water.


No, too small a Henry's Law constant. CO2 is remarkably soluble in water
and remarkably temperature-dependent in its solubility. It wouldn't be
fizzy otherwise.

Does that have also something to do with why deep sea divers use a
helium oxygen mix instead of nitrogen oxygen (air), because maybe the
helium doesn't give them "the bends" as easily as nitrogen?
