At room temperature, neon, which is an inert gas, is far and away less dense than water. Water, as you know, is a liquid at room temperature, and neon is never found in nature on earth as anything but a gas. A link can be found below.

∙ 13y agoYes, slightly. Neon has an Atomic Mass of 20.18 g/mol while air is composed (roughly) of 80% N2 at 28 g/mol and 20% O2 at 32 g/mol. That gives air a density of approximately 28.8 g/mol.

Does the element neon sink or float?
Water, under normal cirumstances, has a density of about 1 gran per cubic centimeter. Under normal circumstances, Neon has a density of a little over .9 grams a liter(1000 cubic centimeters). This means Neon is less dense. In this sense, if Neon were placed in water it would escape to the surface because it is a gas. However, it will not float on the surface.
Removing energy from neon gas may cause which outcome?
Removing energy from neon gas may cause a decrease in motion and less attraction.
How is neon isolated?
Neon is isolated from this cold, gaseous mixture by bringing it into contact with activated charcoal, which adsorbs the neon and hydrogen; removal of hydrogen is effected by adding enough oxygen to convert it all to water, which, along with any surplus oxygen, condenses upon cooling.
What elements are used in neon lights?
neon (Ne)
What weighs less than air?
something that is lighter than the molecular mass of water.Mr of water= 2(1)+16=18therefore, anything with a Mr of lesser than 18 will be lighter than water vapour.example: hydrogen gas.Mr of hydrogen gas= 2(1)= 2therefore, it is lighter than water vapour.
Are noble gases less dense than air?
Helium and neon are less dense than air; argon, krypton, xenon and radon are denser than air.
What are the six gases than are less dense than air?
Neon, ammonia, methane, hydrogen, helium and water vapour are the best lifting gases and are all less denser than air.

How dense is neon?
0.9 g/l
Is neon dense?
0.9 g/l
What is neon's reaction in water?
Neon does not react with water. It doesn't react with anything.
What is the conductivity of neon?
neon is a water based object
Why sodium and fluorine very reactive while neon show no reactivity?
sodium has one electron more(2,8,1) and fluorine has 1 electron less(2,7) But neon has a stable configuration(2,8,8).
Is neon reactive in water?
No, neon is a noble gas. All noble gases are very inert. Thus, neon does not react with water, or most substances for that matter.
Is lithium or Neon more reactive?
Lithium is more reactive than Neon.
What happens to neon when water is added?
Under normal conditions of temperature, nothing happens; water and neon do not react.
Which is more abundant in air krypton or neon?
neon
