What percentage of hydrogen is lighter than air?
100% of hydrogen is lighter than air
A basic gas lighter than air?
Hydrogen and Helium are both lighter than air.
When balloons are filled with this they are lighter than air?
Hot air, hydrogen or helium are lighter than cold air.
What is lighter than helium but heavier than air?
hydrogen
Is Hydrogen gas lighter than air or heavier than air?
Hydrogen gas is 16x lighter than air. The atomic weight of Hydrogen is 1 atomic mass unit, and the atomic weight of oxygen is 16 atomic mass units. 602,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 hydrogen molecules would weigh 1 gram. The same amount of oxygen would weigh 16 grams. Clarification: The air we breath is actually a mixture of oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. But in this example, I treated it as pure oxygen to keep things simple.

How did the Hindenburg stay in the air?
The gas bags of the Hindenberg were filled with Hydrogen gas. Hydrogen is lighter than air, the same way air is lighter than water. The Hydrogen filled "balloon" floated on the air just as one filled with air would float on water. By letting out gas or replacing it from tanks of compressed Hydrogen, they could control the trim and buoyancy of the airship. Unfortunately, Hydrogen is highly flammable when mixed with air, as we all know from what happened to Hindenberg. Although there are ways to avoid disasters such as the one that befell it, people were afraid and that was, effectively, the end of lighter-than-air transportation for commercial purposes.
Is Hydrogen cooler than Air?
Hydrogen is lighter than air. As to the temperature it depends on where the heat source is, hydrogen can either be warmer, cooler or the same temperature as air
Why does a hydrogen filled in balloon rise?
beecause hydrogen is less dense and light then air , easy to fly..the hydrogen in the balloon is lighter than the air outside of it.density of hydrogen is lower than air
