In the most case no they are not. As example you can find it interesting but you can find even iron in the case phase you just need to have high enough temperature (couple thousands degrees).

Is the density of steam more or less than the density of water?
Humid air is lighter and less dense than dry air. Steam is water as a gas. Gaseous water is less dense than dry air.
Why is the density of a substance in a gaseous state much less than its density in liquid or solid state?
Because the atoms or molecules in a gas are several orders of magnitude further apart than they are in a liquid or solid.
Is mercury lighter than air?
as a liquid and solid it is not - as a gas I suspect not although I'm not sure
is there anything lighter than photon?
A neutrino is lighter than the photon
Is the density of gaseous substance likely to be larger or smaller then the density of liquid or solid substance at the same temperature and why?
Temperature in this instance will not affect density, but rather pressure. The density of the gas will be much smaller than the density of a liquid or solid of the same chemical because it is a gas. The formula for density is mass over volume, and a gas has no measurable mass, making the gas always less dense than the liquid and the solid.
How do clouds float and why?
Gaseous water is lighter than air. Clouds are composed (mainly) of gaseous water.
What element forms two gaseous oxides?
Nitrogen, oxygen, and carbon. (NO, NO2, O2, O3, CO, CO2) These elements are in period 2 and tend to form gaseous oxides rather than the solid oxides of period 3. i.e SiO2, P4O10, SO3 (gaseous at STP).
What is the composition of lighter elements in comparison with heavier element?
The lighter elements have less protons and neutrons than heavier ones. It really is as simple as that
What makes uranium lighter than other elements?
Uranium is not lighter but heavier than many of the other elements; the density of uranium is 19,05 g/cm3 and the atomic weight is 238,02891.
Are gaseous fuels better than liquid and solid fuels?
Not better, just a different application.
Why is compound lighter than a element?
A compound is not lighter than an element, if that element is part of the compound. Some compounds, like H2O would be lighter than, say, the element lead, but it is not lighter than the elements that make it up, i.e. hydgrogen and/or oxygen.
What is the use of helium?
Balloons! Gaseous Helium is easily compressed and is stable, (as opposed to Hydrogen). It is lighter than surrounding air.
What are the useful features of plywood?
Less expensive than solid wood, lighter weight to work with, lighter weight finished project, can be matched with other wood, easier to cut than some solid woods
Lighter elements have more or less number of protons than neutrons?
Lighter elements tend to have neutrons equal to protonms or only a slight excess. Heavier elements have an excess of neutrons over protons
What happens to the molecular movement as a gas turns into a solid?
It decreases. In gaseous phase the molecules are further apart than they are in the solid phase so although in solid phase the molecules are still moving minimally they haven't got the space to move around in that they would in the gaseous phase.
Is there anything lighter than oxygen?
In fact there are seven elements lighter than oxygen: hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon and nitrogen.
What elements are heavier than hydrogen?
All of them. There are no elements lighter than hydrogen. It has only two atomic particles, and you cannot have an element with less.
