Best Answer

No. Helium is an element.
No, Helium is not manmade. It naturally occurs in nature. It can be artificially produced though.

It is a noble gas on the Periodic Table, atomic number 2.

Helium is a natural element and is the second most abundant element in the universe, though it is relatively rare on Earth. It is primarily derived from natural gas deposits through the process of fractional distillation.

i think it is no

No, In 1895, Sir William Ramsay discovered helium after treating cleveite,

a uranium mineral, with mineral acids. He sent samples of the gas

to Sir William Crookes and Sir Norman Lockyer who identified helium. It

was discovered independently in clevite by Cleve and Langley at about

the same time. Lockyer and Professor Edward Frankland suggested the

name helium.

I'm pretty sure it is man made because we only breath in air from outside so they add something to air to get helium.

Helium in almost all cases occurs naturally as it comes before Uranium on the period table.
