Best Answer

Oxygen gas (2 Oxygen atoms per molecule) has a molecular weight of 32 g per mol,

Carbon dioxide (1 Carbon atom + 2 Oxygen atoms per molecule) has a molecular weight of 44 g per mol, Methane (1 Carbon atom + 4 Hydrogen atoms per molecule) has a molecular weight of 16 g per mol,

which that means when under the same temperature and pressure conditions, with the same amount of particles in the space (volume), methane would be the least dense of these gases, followed by oxygen, then finally carbon dioxide the most dense.

Yes. Slightly. **********2nd Opinion*********** Carbon dioxide has a higher density than air. Air density is about 1.3 g/L CO2 density is about 2 g/L


Why can carbon dioxide be poured?

Carbon Dioxide can be poured because its density is higher than air which makes it sit lower. So if you take a test tube filled with carbon dioxide, then you can pour it just like a liquid.

In the lungs is carbon dioxide more concentrated in the alveoli or in the blood?

In the lungs, carbon dioxide is concentrated more in the blood. The alveoli keeps the carbon dioxide at a lower level than in the blood.


What gas makes balloon drop not float?

Any gas with a density higher than air. Carbon dioxide will do it, krypton is denser still, and will make it drop quicker. There are others too.

Atmosohere and water which has a higher concentration of carbon dioxide?

Atmosphere has the higher concentration of carbon dioxide. If water had a high concentration of carbon dioxide then water would be acidic because it would result the formation of carbonic acid, but water is neutral. The fact that dissolved carbon dioxide create carbonic acid is used in the manufacture of Coca-Cola. So I think it is the atmosphere.
