Density of all gases are proportional only to their molar masses, because each mole of any gas takes a volume of 22.4 litre at standard temperature (0 oC), and pressure (1 bar).

Thus: from "formula => molar mass => density"

C2H2 => 2*12+2*1= 26 g/mol ==> density (at 0 oC, 1 bar) =26/22.4 =1.16 g/l

N2 => 2*14= 28 g/mol ==> density (at 0 oC, 1 bar) =28/22.4 =1.25 g/l

Nitrogen is a more dense gas than ethyn is.

Note: Ethene ( C2H4) is equal to nitrogen in density.

Why hydrogen gas collected by upward delivery?

Because hydrogen gas is less dense than air(mostly nitrogen and oxygen), and the less dense gas flows to go above the more dense(and escape the atmosphere).


Is nitrogen liquid or gas?

In the atmosphere it is a gas, in the soil it its a solid, nitrogen gas can be converted to liquid in air separation plants. Also, as a liquid Nitrogen is very cold -- cryogenic temperatures. Nitrogen is stored as liquid commonly for convenience, even when gas is required, because liquid is more dense than gas and more nitrogen could be stored in the same volume. Simply, the answer to your question is nitrogen is a solid, liquid and gas depending on where you find it or how you've modified it.

What is the expansion ratio of acetylene?

The expansion ratio of acetylene is approximately 1:668 when it is converted from liquid to gas. This means that one volume of liquid acetylene will expand to form 668 volumes of acetylene gas at room temperature and pressure.


Is argon denser or less dense than nitrogen?

Nitrogen is four fifths of the air so their densities are very similar. Pure nitrogen is slightly less dense than air.

Is gas dense?

Gas is not dense, solids should be dense, liquids are dense, but not as much as solids.
