Out of dry and wet air which is heavier?
Moist air weighs less than dry air at the same temperature. This is because the density of diatomic Oxygen and Nitrogen is greater than water vapor (H2O).
Is oxygen heavier than air or lighter?
Oxygen o2 only is slighty heavyer than air. o3(ozone) is around the same weight as o2 ,but the ozone layer is at a hiegher altitude because it is created when o2 come in contact with high amounts of UV rays.
How does density of helium compare to density of oxygen and nitrogen?
Helium is lighter (less dense) than oxygen & nitrogen.
What planet has nitrogen and oxygen in it's atmosphere?
It is none other than our own planet Earth, which has nitrogen and oxygen in its atmosphere.
Why ozone is lighter than oxygen?
Ozone is heavier than air. Ozone is found in the upper atmosphere, because it is made "up there", and decays back to oxygen before it can fall very far.
Which element is heavier than carbon but lighter than oxygen?
If "heavier than" in the question is interpreted to mean "has an atomic mass greater than", the answer is nitrogen
Why does the stratosphere have less oxygen than the troposphere?
We know that oxygen is just a bit heavier than the air like carbon dioxide ,nitrogen etc.Besides that the main source of oxygen,the trees is in troposphere. Because of this reasons oxygen density is much heavier in troposphere than the stratosphere
Carbon dioxide gas is heavier than both nitrogen and oxygen. Why does it not form the lower layer in the atmosphere?
uyriuy\
Why does not Co2 form the lower layer in the atmosphere?
CO2 weighs 44 and it is heavier than Nitrogen and Oxygen...it is denser than Oxygen still it is able to mix with other gases in the atmosphere
Why is nitrogen heavier than air?
No. The atmosphere is roughly 80% N2, 20% O2, and about 1% of other trace gases. The molecular mass of N2 is about 28, the molecular mass of O2 is about 32. So, no O2 is not lighter than air, it is slightly heavier.
Why is it that the nitrogen have greater amount than oxygen?
nitrogen is lighter than oxygen
What is lighter oxygen or nitrogen?
Nitrogen is lighter than oxygen
What is heavier oxygen or CO2?
CO2 carbon dioxide is heavier than oxygen.
Who is heaver nitrogen or air?
Dry air is about 80% nitrogen. The remaining 20% consists mostly of things that are heavier than nitrogen, so dry air is very slightly heavier than nitrogen.
How are the elements carbon nitrogen and oxygen produced in stars like the sun?
These fusion (carbon , nitrogen , and oxygen) reactions form nuclei of sightly heavier elements.
Is nitrogen denser than air?
No, air is more dense because it contains 20% oxygen, the heavier element than nitrogen (32 g/mol O2, i.s.o. 28 g/mol N2).
Is carbon dioxide lighter than oxygen?
carbon dioxide is heavier than oxygen therefore oxygen is lighter.
