Yes, an anchor is more dense than a hot air balloon. Density equals the mass divided be the volume.
For example:
Let's say that they both take up the same amount of volume, the anchor has a higher mass than the hot air balloon so it has a higher density which is why the hot air balloon floats and the anchor will sink.
yes it is.
If a thing can float on water, it's density is lower than water, like a hot air ballon.
If a thing can sink in water, it's density is higher than water, like an anchor.

Are helium balloons more dense than air baloons?
No. At the same pressure, a helium filled balloon will be less dense than an air-filled balloon.
Is the air inside of a balloon more dense or less dense than the air around it?
The air inside a balloon is less dense than the air around it. When the balloon is inflated, it contains less air molecules compared to the same volume of air outside the balloon, making it less dense.
Is the air inside the balloon less dense than the air outside the balloon?
No. If you blow air into a baloon, it will be under pressure, and therefore more dense, than the air outside.No. If you blow air into a baloon, it will be under pressure, and therefore more dense, than the air outside.No. If you blow air into a baloon, it will be under pressure, and therefore more dense, than the air outside.No. If you blow air into a baloon, it will be under pressure, and therefore more dense, than the air outside.
What is least dense an apple or a balloon?
A balloon is less dense than an apple because it is filled with air, which has a much lower density than the solid matter that makes up an apple.
Why would heating the gas in a hot air balloon make the balloon rise?
When the gas (air) in a hot air balloon is heated it becomes less dense. This makes the balloon more buoyant so it rises.Because heating the air inside the balloon makes it less dense than the air surrounding the outside of the balloon, so it will rise.
What makes balloons less dense air?
If a balloon is filled with a substance that's less dense than air ... such as helium, hydrogen, steam, or warmer air ... then the balloon is less dense than air.
What can you say about the gas inside a balloon?
The gas inside of a balloon is less dense than the air outside of it if the balloon floats. If the balloon does not float the density of the gas inside of it is equal to or more dense than that around it.
How does a hot air balloon work?
Hot air balloons get their buoyancy from hot air created by a propane burner at the base of the balloon. Hot air is less dense than cold air and so weighs less. When the cold air that is displaced weighs more than the balloon, the balloon will rise. The balloons weight is controlled by turning the burner on and off when needed. The hot air is less dense than the outside air and so the balloon is squeezed upwards by the surrounding air. The air becomes less dense as more heat is applied, particles separate more and more when heat is applied. The more heat is applied the further apart and less dense the particles become.
What determines if a balloon filled with a gas will rise or sink in the air?
A balloon filled with a gas will rise or sink depending on the density of the gas inside compared to the surrounding air. If the gas inside is less dense than the surrounding air, the balloon will rise. If the gas inside is more dense, the balloon will sink.
Is a balloon more dense or less dense than the surrounding air?
Because that's what density does. Whenever an object is immersed in a medium with higher density than the object, the object will try to rise to apoint where its buoyancy(lifting force) equals the pull of gravity.
Why does an air balloon not float?
A hot air balloon floats because the air inside is heated, making it less dense than the cooler air outside. This creates a buoyant force that lifts the balloon. If the air inside the balloon is not heated, it will not be less dense than the surrounding air, and the balloon will not float.
How does a balloon filled with nitrogen air fly up?
The composition of air is roughly 78% nitrogen and the remainder except a negligable amount of hydrogen is more dense than nitrogen. Therefore a balloon filled with nitrogen will be less dense then the surrounding air and thus will rise. The balloon will probaly not rise, as there is insufficient lift to overcome the weight of the balloon fabric. Are you sure you don't mean Helium, or Hydrogen?
