Answer:

The amount of water vapor in air influence density. Water vapor is relatively light compared to diatomic Oxygen and diatomic Nitrogen - the dominant components in air. When vapor content increases in moist air the amount of Oxygen and Nitrogen are decreased per unit volume and the density of the mix decreases since the mass is decreasing.
