The answer is that there is in fact more air on Earth, thought in comparison to water it on lt beats it by a little stretch. The link below will show you how it would look if all air were gathered into a sphere beside the earth, and how all water would appear gathered up into a sphere.

What else can I help you with?
Is there more air or water on Earth?
There is more water on Earth than air. Water covers about 71 of the Earth's surface, while the atmosphere, which contains air, extends only a few hundred kilometers above the surface.
What two characteristics of this layer make it possible to retain this much water vapor on earth?
The two characteristics of the atmosphere that allow it to retain water vapor on Earth are temperature and pressure. Warmer air can hold more water vapor than cooler air, and higher pressure air can hold more water vapor than lower-pressure air. This combination allows for the retention of significant amounts of water vapor in the Earth's atmosphere.
Why are water and air at the equator warmer than water and air at the poles?
The equator receives more direct sunlight throughout the year, leading to higher temperatures. This causes the air and water at the equator to absorb and retain more heat compared to the poles, which receive sunlight at a lower angle and for shorter durations, resulting in cooler temperatures.
Air has more capacity to hold water at what?
Air has more capacity to hold water when the air is warmer. The colder the air is, the less water it can hold.
Can hot air hold more or less water than cold air?
Hot air can hold more water vapor than cold air. This is because warmer air molecules are further apart, allowing more space for water vapor molecules to exist in the air. Conversely, cold air molecules are closer together, limiting the amount of water vapor that can be held.
Is there more air or water on Earth?
There is more water on Earth than air. Water covers about 71 of the Earth's surface, while the atmosphere, which contains air, extends only a few hundred kilometers above the surface.
What would happen if air was more dense than water?
Everyone on earth would drown.

Why is the air around the earth warmer than the air under the water?
what air under water?????
Why does water exert more pressure than air?
Water is more dense than air is.
Why is air more buoyant than water?
Air is more buoyant than water because it has a lower density. The density of an object determines its buoyancy - objects with lower density than the fluid they are in will float. Air is less dense than water, so objects are more likely to float in air than in water.
What are the 4 element of science?
Science has many more elements than 4. The Earth has 4 elements. Fire, water, earth, air.
How does the heat of water help maintain the temperature of earth?
By heating and cooling more slowly than land or air
What are the elements in farts?
air and water(more air than water.).
Why do objects seem to be lighter in water than in air?
Objects are more buoyant in water than in air.
What weighs more water or air?
Water weighs more than air. This is due to the density of the substances - water is much denser than air, so a given volume of water will have more mass (and thus weight) compared to the same volume of air.
Why cant you float in the air?
You can't float in the air because of the force of gravity pulling you down towards the Earth. In order to float, you would need an upward force (like buoyancy in water or lift in an airplane) to counteract the pull of gravity. Without such a force, you will always fall towards the Earth.
