Was thinking of using nitrogen to evacuate air from carboys because I have a free tank. Was wondering if nitrogen will sink to the bottom of a container (heavier than air) or quickly rise out of a container (lighter than air). I have looked at the periodic table and I know nitrogen is lighter than oxygen and there is a lot of it compared to oxygen in the air, just wondering what nitrogen will do in a container? Would co2 be better? I assume co2 is heavier than air from every dry ice experiment I have ever seen it seems to drop to the floor.
