Both... or neither, whichever way you want to look at it.
Burps consist mostly of carbon dioxide which is no heavier or lighter than air as it is part of the air (only 0.03% but it is there nonetheless!). The next most likely candidate for burp gas is air itself that has been (deliberately or inadvertently) swallowed. Due to the 'neutral' weight of a burp it will simply dissipate and move around quite literally wherever the wind takes them.
Hope this helped!

Sinking and floating?
Well because of density anything can sink o float it is caused by density. What i mean is if density is 1 and up it will sink but if density is 1 and down it will float .
Why do you float back to the top when you dive under water in your swimming pool?
Because your body is less dense than the water. More dense bodies go down, in fact you don't float back to the top, the water falls down not leaving room for your body but up to the surface.

What can cause specific gravity to go up instead of going down in water?
An object will tend to go up (float) if it has less density than the fluid (in this case, water) it is placed in.
Why do corks float in water?
Any object placed in water will be pulled down into the liquid by gravity. No surprise there. But an object less dense than water will only be pulled down until the object displaces an amount of water equal to its own mass. Then it will float. The water will be pushing up equal to the force of gravity pulling down - an equilibrium. Any object that weighs less than its own volume of water will float. It's lower overall density will result in buoyancy.

Can astronaut burp in space?
Yes, an astronaut can burp in space, however, it may not be the best idea.On Earth gravity will separate the liquids and solids in your stomach from the gases. The bubbles will float up to the top of your stomach so if you burp most often you'll simply expel air.In orbit the microgravity environment makes concepts like "up" and "down" entirely ambiguous. So liquids and gases don't separate neatly. Burping in this environment carries the chance of losing a tiny bit of your lunch in the process.
