: way wrong compressed air has no weight duh co2 has weight that is why a 20oz tank will hold 20oz of co2 Actually, you are way wrong. All matter has weight, as does air, compressed or otherwise. : dont you remember draging out the air compressor out to fill a tire then draging it back it is the same weight draging it back even though you used 1/2 the air in the tank. If you weren't running the compressor, and were only draining the tank, the compressor/tank assembly would be lighter when dragging it back. However, the weight difference would be so small, compared to the weight of the compressor that you would not notice the difference. : some people need to do some research before posting. Yes, you do. The very first experiment we did in my high school chemistry class was to confirm that air had weight. See you on the field, -Bill Mills
