if you can put your hand through gas, the particles are not close together, and therefor is so lightly dense
Helium gas is less dense than air, so it will rise and float in both air and water.
Hydrogen gas is considered the least dense element. It is less dense than air, which is why it is often used in balloons.
A balloon filled with a gas will rise or sink depending on the density of the gas inside compared to the surrounding air. If the gas inside is less dense than the surrounding air, the balloon will rise. If the gas inside is more dense, the balloon will sink.
Gas is actually the least dense state of matter. In a gas, particles are spread out and have high energy causing them to move rapidly and take up a large volume. Solids are the most dense state because their particles are tightly packed together.
so the past tense is dense. its an adjective
When heated, gases typically expand and become less dense. So, a gas would be least dense when heated.
Chlorine gas is less dense than water, so it will float on top of water if the two are in contact.
Gas is not dense, solids should be dense, liquids are dense, but not as much as solids.
gas
The gas phase is less dense than the liquid or solid phase of a substance. Density is not a property of sound.
Because hydrogen gas is less dense than air(mostly nitrogen and oxygen), and the less dense gas flows to go above the more dense(and escape the atmosphere).
'Least' is a comparison word. Compared to iron and lead yes cotton is least dense. Compares to oxygen gas and hydrogen gas, no it is not least dense.
They are all dense and rocky. The gas giants are made of gas and are big. ps. pluto is not a plnet anymore!! ^_^
Gas
air is more dense than helium
Usually this happens when a gas cools. It becomes more dense as the gas particles move more slowly. Eventually it condenses and so it changes back to a liquid.
Helium is a gas that is less dense than air. This is why a balloon filled with helium rises when released.
