No, air has a density of 1.225 g/l @ 15°C. and Standard Atmospheric Pressure while butane is 2.52 g/l. Butane is more than twice as heavy as air!

Wiki User
∙ 14y agoNo. In general, liquids are denser than gases.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoNo. air is lighter
Density of air is 1.225 g/cm3, density of propane is 2.01 g/cm3.

Density of propane is 2.01 g/cm3
So air is lighter than propane.
Wiki User

Density of butane is 2.48 g/cm3
So air is lighter than butane.
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoYes it is. The density of butane is 2.48 g/cm3, while that of O2 is 1.48 g/cm3

What gas is in a hot air balloon?
A hot air balloon is inflated with air and then heated by a propane fueled burner. The balloon contains air andthe products of combustion of propane, namely carbon dioxide, which is heavier than air, and steam, which is much lighter than air.
What gas do hot air balloons have?
The balloon contains air andthe products of combustion of propane, namely carbon dioxide, which is heavier than air, and steam, which is much lighter than air.
Are hydrocarbons heavier than air?
Some are heavier, but some are lighter. For example, methane rises but propane sinks.
Why was the airplane harder to invent than the hot air balloon?

Yes it must have, otherwise Helium would not be lighter than 'air' and propane would not be heavier than 'air'
What percentage of hydrogen is lighter than air?
100% of hydrogen is lighter than air
Is methane lighter than air?
Yes methane is lighter than air because it is less dense than air.
Is argon lighter than air?

What are some lighter than air aircrafts?
blimp or hot air balloons are lighter than air crafts
When balloons are filled with this they are lighter than air.?
