What we know as air is a solution of several gases, including Co2.

Air consists of 78% nitrogen; 21% oxygen and very small amounts of water, co2 and noble gases.

Under a normal temperature, the density of air is around 1,1 Kg/m3 and the density of Co2 is 1,8 Kg/m3 so because of this, Co2 is actually heavier than air.

I hope my answer was useful.

Does a hot air balloon need CO2 to lift?

No, a hot air balloon does not need CO2 to lift. Hot air balloons work on the principle that hot air is less dense than cooler air, causing it to rise. When the air inside the balloon is heated, it becomes lighter than the surrounding air, allowing the balloon to lift off the ground.

Why is helium lighter than CO2?

Well, isn't that just a happy little question! Helium is lighter than CO2 because it has a lower atomic mass. You see, helium is made up of smaller atoms than carbon dioxide, so it floats up above it like a fluffy little cloud in the sky. Just like how we can't help but smile when we see a balloon floating gently in the air, helium can't help but rise above CO2.
