Is it safe to keep helium balloons (they are the ones made of that silvery aluminum) overnight in a closet so my mom doesn't find them for her birthday tomorrow? What about flowers- will they be OK in there overnight?

The balloons will be okay in the closet as long as there isn't any sharp objects near them.
Your flowers will be okay too for 1 night.

Blow helium right into a toy balloon and the elastic membrane stretches. The membrane looks sturdy notwithstanding that's riddled with microscopic holes. those holes look extensive to tiny helium atoms that careen interior the balloon at speeds of approximately 2,800 miles in line with hour. The molecules collide usually with one yet another, zigzagging via the balloon, and now and lower back attain the membrane. they'd hit upon a gaping hollow and zip superb via, escaping. it particularly is why balloons deflate. shall we are saying the relative length of latex holes and helium atoms. production defects or harm in all probability create the holes because of the fact latex rubber isn't certainly porous. the hollow diameter is a minimum of one million,000 circumstances extra beneficial than that of a helium atom. A helium atom scooting via a latex hollow is style of a small fly humming via a double-motor vehicle storage door.

sadly, yeah. my sister kept a balloon from something years ago. it hasn't popped, but its about half the size it used to be.it just was tied to the hanger rack and she never touched it. it kinda looks like wrinkly old lady skin.
