The density of a gas is propotional to its molecular weight. Air is composed of primarily of nitrogen and oxygen, which have molecular weights of about 28 g/mol and 32 g/mol respectively. Sulfur hexafluoride has a molecular weight of about 146 g/mol, which would make it roughly 5 times denser than air.
