is the molecular mass of dry air, approximately 4.81 × 10 −26 in kg. [note 1], the specific gas constant for dry air, which using the values presented above would be approximately 287.050 0676 in J⋅kg −1 ⋅K −1. [note 1] Therefore:
Air is given a vapour density of one. For this use, air has a molecular weight of 28.97 atomic mass units, and all other gas and vapour molecular weights are divided by this number to derive their vapour density. [2] For example, acetone has a vapour density of 2 [3] in relation to air. That means acetone vapour is twice as heavy as air.

Only certain lighter than air gases are suitable as lifting gases. Dry air has a density of about 1.29 g/L (gram per liter) at standard conditions for temperature and pressure (STP) and an average molecular mass of 28.97 g/mol, [1] and so lighter-than-air gases have a density lower than this.
The gas constant occurs in the ideal gas law: = = where P is the absolute pressure, V is the volume of gas, n is the amount of substance, m is the mass, and T is the thermodynamic temperature. R specific is the mass-specific gas constant. The gas constant is expressed in the same unit as molar heat.
Molecular weight (M.W.) (for molecular compounds) and formula weight (F.W.) (for non-molecular compounds), are older terms for what is now more correctly called the relative molar mass (M r). [8] This is a dimensionless quantity (i.e., a pure number, without units) equal to the molar mass divided by the molar mass constant .
ISO TR 29922-2017 provides a definition for standard dry air which specifies an air molar mass of 28,965 46 ± 0,000 17 kg·kmol-1. [2] GPA 2145:2009 is published by the Gas Processors Association. It provides a molar mass for air of 28.9625 g/mol, and provides a composition for standard dry air as a footnote. [3]
molecular weight of dry air 28.9644 g/mol. the number is correct, and the unit is, but that MOLAR weight each mole of that element containing N (avogadro) molecules weight 28 grams or 0.028 Kg, that not the molecular weight but "molar weight" or "molal weight". Also naturally that mol means mole and not molecule, 28 g would be very heavy one :D
