Hydrogen is lighter than Oxygen.
This is a very simple question. Hydrogen is the first element on the Periodic Table of elements and it weighs 0.08988 grams per litre. Oxygen is the 8th element on the periodic table. It weighs 1.429 grams per litre.
All of the elements (and most chemicals you will ever want to know about) have an article on Wikipedia. These articles almost always include the "weight per amount" known as Density.

∙ 14y agoOxygen is more heavier then Hydrogen, as for gases the density depends only upon the molar mass.
So H2 has a molar mass of 2 g/mole and that of oxygen O2 is 32.
Thus Hydrogen gas is 16 times lighter than Oxygen gas.

Which gasses are heavier than oxygen?
Carbon dioxide is denser than oxygen.
Why is plutonium heavier than hydrogen?
Plutonium is a high-density metal, hydrogen a low-density gas.
Why does a bike get heavier after rusting?
because the iron combines with the oxygen and hydrogen which makes it rust and heavier
Why does the stratosphere have less oxygen than the troposphere?
We know that oxygen is just a bit heavier than the air like carbon dioxide ,nitrogen etc.Besides that the main source of oxygen,the trees is in troposphere. Because of this reasons oxygen density is much heavier in troposphere than the stratosphere
Why is hydrogen gas not found naturally in the air?
Hydrogen gas would react with oxgyen and release energy. The lighter hydrogen gas would float to the top of the atmosphere; above the heavier nitrogen and oxygen.
What gas is heavier hydrogen or oxygen?
oxygen gas is heavier than hydrogen gas
How percentage of oxygen is more in water than hydrogen?
This is true for mass-%. Oxygen is 16 times heavier than hydrogen, that outfigures the double elemental ratio for hydrogen to oxygen (2:1) by factor 8 times.
Which is more heavier - hydrogen gas or oxygen gas?
Mass of Hydrogen gas:- 2g/mol Mass of Oxygen gas :- 32g/mol Therefore, Oxygen gas is more heavier
Is nitrogen heavier than oxygen?
it is heavier
What is heavier Hydrogen gas or oxygen gas How do you know?
Oxygen is heavier as it has a mass number of 16 whereas hydrogen has a mass number of 1. Both form diatomic molecules (molecules of two atoms) making the formula masses 32 for oxygen and 2 for hydrogen.
What is heavier oxygen or CO2?
CO2 carbon dioxide is heavier than oxygen.
Is carbon dioxide lighter than oxygen?
carbon dioxide is heavier than oxygen therefore oxygen is lighter.
Why is water heavier than the two gasses that compose it?
fluids are heavier than gases. When hydrogen its by itself is lighter than water as so the oxygen is also lighter. Once combined they form a fluid thus the combination of two gases produced a fluid which will turn heavier.
What is lighter than helium but heavier than air?
hydrogen
Which gasses are heavier than oxygen?
Carbon dioxide is denser than oxygen.
Is helium lighter or heavier than hydrogen?
Heavier but safer. Look what happened to the Hindenburg:(
What element is the second most abundant in the body?
Most of our body is made up of water (H20); therefore hydrogen is the most abundant (i.e. numerous) element and oxygen is the second most abundant. However, since oxygen is much heavier than hydrogen, it comprises a larger percentage of body weight (about 65%) than does hydrogen (about 10%).
