All matter has mass. All things with mass weigh something in a gravitational field.
Gases are matter and on Earth are in a gravitational field, so they weigh something.
Sometimes it would seem they are weight free or even buoyant because of the ther gas in the atmosphere. However in isolation with these effects removed they all have weight.
An example of gas weights: Most atmospheric gases weigh around 30 g per 22.4 liters

Do all the gases in the atmosphere weigh the same?
no they don't.
What can be used to weigh solids liquids or gases?
you can use a scale for weight, a beaker or measuring cup for liquid, and for gases idk
Do candles weigh more when they are lit?
No. They weigh progresively less as the fuel/wax is burnt off and converted into gases. The flame hovers OVER the candle and does not weigh on the candle at all.
Why does dry gas exert more pressure than moist gas?
I wonder who said it did. Did he realise that some gases might weigh more than the water which is contained in moist gases?
Which gases weigh less than air?
Appended is a list of gases with their specific gravities. The specific gravity of a gas is a comparison of its density with that of air at the same temperature and pressure. Gases with a Specific Gravity (SG) less than1 are lighter than air.
Greenhouse gases are obviously lighter than air How then are they measured by weight How does one weigh something that is lighter than air?
Greenhouse gasses are NOT "obviously lighter than air"; carbon dioxide is significantly heavier than air.One way to weigh something that's lighter than air is to weigh it in a vacuum.
Can gas be weighed?
Yes, gases can be weighed. One way, which many people use this method when weighing a gas, fill a balloon to a certain amount and weigh it.
What are the types of toxic gases?
blister gases, choking gases and nerve gases
What is naturl gases?
Natural gases are gases of lithosphere.
How do you spell the word gases?
The correct spelling is "gases."
What are the inactive gases?
The inactive gases are the noble gases
Which gases are considered monatomic gases?
There are many gases that can be considered monatomic gases. Some of these gases are helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon and radon and all of those gases are considered noble gases.
