Do air molecules have mass?

Yes, air molecules do have mass. Air is made up of various gases such as nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide, and each of these gas molecules contributes to the overall mass of the air.


Explain why air has pressure?

The simplest explanation is that air is composed of gases. Gases are composed of molecules. Molecules have mass. The closer molecules get to the center and bottom of the gravity well, the more closely packed they become, because successive "layers" pack down on those below, piling up. The weight of the gases on top of those on the bottom compress those on the bottom.


Why can only solids vibrate but liquid and gases can't?

Liquids and gases can vibrate. In fact sound is the vibration of air molecules.


What is made of gas?

Gases are made up of high energy molecules and atoms.


Is air covalent or ionic?

Air is composed mainly of covalent molecules, such as nitrogen (N2) and oxygen (O2), as well as small amounts of other gases. These gases form covalent bonds by sharing electrons between atoms in a stable manner.


What does sound travel slowest in?

by air


What do sound waves travel the slowest in?

Sound waves travel the slowest in gases, such as air. This is because the molecules in gases are more spread out compared to liquids and solids, which slows down the transfer of sound energy.


What is air motion rate?

Bulk air motion is called "wind speed". Motion of individual molecules in air is covered by temperature and the "kinetic theory of gases".


What diffuses faster air or oxygen gas why?

Oxygen gas diffuses faster than air because oxygen molecules are smaller and lighter than the molecules of air, which is mostly composed of nitrogen and oxygen. This allows oxygen molecules to move more quickly through a medium, such as air or other gases.


When molecules in liquids and gases are heated they?

When molecules in liquids and gases are heated they move faster


Is air a molecule or compound?

Air is a mixture of different gases including nitrogen, oxygen, carbon dioxide, and others. Each of these gases is made up of individual molecules. So, air is not a single molecule or compound, but a combination of multiple molecules of different gases.


What happens when air is compressed?

When air particles are compressed, the density is increased. There is more pressure within a region or within a container. There are more molecules in a given volume, and this can cause the air to heat up. - The pressure of the air increases, as does its temperature, as its volume decreases.
