You can blow up a balloon and then weigh the balloon and minus it from the original weight of the balloon
Answer:
Weighing air is problem because of the buoyant forces at work. If you have flattened paper bag and weigh it then open it up (effectively filling it with air), and weigh it again you find the weight is the same. In the case of a balloon, a filled balloon will weigh more than an empty balloon as it is filled with compressed air due to the tension of the balloon skin. You have no idea of the volume of room pressure air is in it.
To determine this you could inflate the balloon with known volume of air using bicycle pump. Simple math would identify the volume transferred with each stroke. By knowing the weight before filling, the weight after filling, and the volume transferred it would be possible to calclate the weight per meter (or cubic foot) of room pressure air.

∙ 12y agoyou can weigh air by getting a balloon and blowing it up and letting down Again then you get a normal balloon and blow it up thaen strap them both to a clothing hanger and the balloon which ways the most is the inflated baloon. why: because the balloon is holding the air and the balloon's outside therefore making it heavier.

∙ 12y agoyes it does, that's why hot air rises and cold air desends, cause hot air is lighter

∙ 11y agoair i think weighs very little and has to weigh something because all matter has mass.

∙ 9y agoYes air has weight. Pressure, temperature and composition are the different variables that determine how much air will weigh.
Wiki User
∙ 13y agoYou betcha! That weight is called air pressure, and it is measured on a barometer.

The weight of the air on the earths surface is?
The weight of the air on the earth is called... Air Pressure
How did Galileo estimate the weight of air?
Galileo developed an experimental apparatus called the "weighing astration" to estimate the weight of air. In this device, he balanced a sealed container filled with air against an equal weight of water. He observed that the container became lighter when air was removed, leading him to conclude that air has weight.
Are air is weightless?
Air has weight because it is made up of molecules of matter and all matter has weight and mass.
What is the weight of air?
The weight of air would have to be the average weight of a coconut in July when it's raining dancing under a pomtree drinking cool aid. Or.... 1.00 grams
Why does air pressure becomes lower as water molecules are added to the air?
Air pressure is the weight of the air at a specific location. On the surface of the earth, we have the entire weight of the atmosphere pressing on us in the form of air molecules like O2, N2, and CO2. As we go higher and higher into the atmosphere, there are fewer molecules and so there is less weight pressing against us.
Does air have weight?
Anything with mass has weight; air has mass, therefore it has weight.
The weight of the air on the earths surface is?
The weight of the air on the earth is called... Air Pressure
What are the 3 properties of air?
The three properties of air are weight, mass, and density.
Give examples from daily life that air has weight?
air has weight
A person feeling weight of air feels?
a person feeling the weight of air feels
The weight of an air is known as?
air pressure
Does air pressure give air weight?
No
Air pressure is due to the weight of air?
The compression of air.
What the weight of air called?
The weight of air is called air pressure. There is no way around air pressure and it must be calculated into anything having to do with physics.
How will you provide that the air has weight?
Take a large container, pump out all the air from inside it. Weigh it. Put air inside and then weigh it again. The difference would be the weight of the air inside. Air molecules have mass (air is "stuff") and things with mass have weight when in a gravitational field, such as on Earth. If air didn't have any weight, we wouldn't even have an atmosphere.
What does the weight of the air create?
The weight of air is generally referred to as air pressure (about 14.7 psi). This is the weight oa coulmn of air extending from the surface to the upper limits of the atmosphere for each square inch of surface.
What is a way to determine the density of air?
Get all the air out of it, and weight it. This is the true weight of just the vacuum chamber.
