Because it doesn't say neither the temperature, the pressure or the humidity of the air. You need to know both the temperature, the pressure and the humidity of the air to say anything about the mass of one cubic meter of air.

How much heat is contained in 1 cubic meter of air?

That depends on the mass, pressure, and temperature of the air in the cubic meter.


What is the mass of a cubic meter of air at ntp?

1300 gram


How much does 1 cubic meter weight?

Depends. A cubic meter of WHAT? If it's a cubic meter of lead, it would weigh quite a bit. A cubic meter of air, not so much. The standard substance that is used to relate metric measurements to each other is water. The "gram" was defined as the mass (not weight, but similar) of one cubic centimeter of water at normal temperature. There are 1 million cubic centimeters in a cubic meter, so a cubic meter of water would have a mass of 1 million grams, or 1,000 kilograms, or 1 metric ton. To obtain the mass of 1 cubic meter of some other substances, simply multiply the specific gravity of the substance by the mass of a cubic meter of water.


How much hydrogen is enough to lift up 1 kg weight from the ground?

The weight of standard air is 1.2256 Kg/ Cubic Meter The weight of hydrogen is 0.0857 Kg/ Cubic Meter The weight of helium is 0.1691 Kg/ Cubic Meter Subtracting the weight of hydrogen from air gives you the gross buoyant lift of hydrogen as 1.1399 Kg/Cubic Meter Subtracting the weight of helium from air gives you the gross buoyant lift of helium as 1.0565 Kg/Cubic Meter These values are variable under altitude, pressure, temperature, humidity and purity of gas. Hope this helps you.


What is weight of 1 cubic meter of air?

At a temperature of 20 °C and a pressure of 101.325 kPa (standard pressure), dry air has a density of 1.2041 kg/m3.So the weight of 1 cubic meter of air under those conditions is 1.2041 kg.
