Air, like any other gas, has volume. When you blow air into a balloon, the air takes the shape of the balloon. If more air is blown in, the balloon becomes larger as the volume of the air is increased. If some of the air is released, the balloon becomes smaller as the volume of the air is decreased.

∙ 13y agoLike all mass, air does have density. Density is calculated by the formula M/V=D, where M is Mass, V is Volume and D is Density.
Mass is the scientifically correct term for weight, weight varies depending on the gravity, mass is constant.
Volume is the area that a substance takes up, a Litre is a measurement of volume.
Air is composed of various gases, on Earth it's something like 21% Oxygen 78% Nitrogen, along with water vapor, carbon dioxide, and other gases like hydrogen and methane. Even the lightest of gases have mass, so they must have a density.

Does humidity affect air density?
Yes humidity effects the density of air in a way when humidity increases the air density decreases . the reason behind this phenomena is when the amount water vapor increases the major air content i.e O2 and N2 decreases per volume and since we are talking about air density we say density of air is decreased.
When altitude increases does air density?
The density of the atmosphere decreases with altitude.
What is the difference in density between warm and cold air?
The density between cold and warm air is, cold air is heavier than warm air.
What happens to the density of air as you go further below sea level altitude but in dry land?
Density always increases as altitude decreases. So the air density below sea level will be greater than the air density at sea level.
What is the density of cold air?
1500 G/Ml I don't know the density of hot though. I know this cause i am on my science project
How do you think the density of heated air compares to the density of cooler air?
The density of heated air is less than the density of cooler air.
What difference between density in air and density in vacuum?
subtract 0.0011 from the density in vac to get density in air.
What is difference between density in air and density in vacuum?
subtract 0.0011 from the density in vac to get density in air.
When you compare the density of water or air with another object how can you tell which has the lower or higher density?
-- If the object floats in water, then its density is less than the density of water. -- If the object sinks in water, then its density is more than the density of water. -- If the object floats in air, then its density is less than the density of air. -- If the object sinks in air, then its density is less than the density of air.
Does air have density and pressure?
Air has both density and pressure.
How does the density of the air affect pressure?
Pressure affects the density of air by increase of pressure increases the density
How do you convert density in air to vacuum in oil?
subtract 0.0011 from the density in vac to get density in air.
What do changes in density cause air movement?
Low density air rises, higher density air moves in to take its place.
Compare the density of water and air?
Air's density is less than that of water. Water's density is almost 800 times greater than air.
How density and temperature of air related?
cold air has higher density, by hot air is opposite
What do air density and air pressure have in common?
At a given temperature, the higher the air density, the higher the air pressure.
How does altitude affect density and air pressure?
Altitude has a large affect on the air pressure and air density. Air density reduces with altitude and air pressure reduces with altitude as well.
