I would guess that the answer to this poorly worded question is the gas because I am not aware of a gas that is denser than a liquid.

Having said that, what materials are the cylinders made of? They may be the same size, but they could be made of materials of vastly different densities - so much so that the difference is the cylinders' masses offsets the difference in the masses of the contents.

Furthermore, heavier implies the force of gravity. If you had two identical cylinders, one filled with gas and on the surface of a neutron star, and the other filled with liquid and "floating" in space, the first would be heavier - very many times heavier.

What is Size difference between oxygen and acetylene cylinder?

Oxygen cylinders are typically larger and heavier than acetylene cylinders due to the higher pressure at which oxygen is stored. Oxygen cylinders may also contain more volume of gas compared to acetylene cylinders.

It depends on the size of the cylinders. Not all 4 cylinder engines are the same size.


How does pressure due to a liquid held in a container vary with depth amount and shape and size of the container?

Pressure due to a liquid increases with depth because of the weight of the liquid above it. The pressure in a liquid is the same at a given depth regardless of the shape or size of the container, as long as the depth is the same. The shape and size of the container would only affect the pressure at different depths in the liquid.

Why is a golf ball heavier than a ping-pong ball even though the balls are the same size?

The interior of a ping-pong ball is filled with air, while the interior of a golf ball is made of solid material (rubbers) that are heavier (denser) than air. Thus wile about the same size a golf ball is much heavier than a ping-pong ball.
