It's a chemical process so it doesn't have mass.

Yes, as air has weight 1.3 kg per cubic metre and density of gas in the flame of fire 1/4 th density of air. So the weight of flame will be 1.3/4 i.e—0.3 kg per meter cube.

Flame is nothing but highly energized gas molecules, so yeah it does have weight (as molecules have Weight).

Fire is a chemical process, so it does not weight while Fire's Flame is a complex mixture of particulate solids and gases which are reactive and thus have mass. I hope the answer helps.

Yes, it has mass. If you consider it as electromagnetic wave still it weights due to its motion. Or on the other hand, smokes comes out from flame; it means it has mass.

No, Fire's flame does not have any weight as it's a medium for phase change.
