How much does an average scuba diver weigh?

I am a Scuba certified and I weigh 150 Lbs, in my class there were some other people in the 250+ range, and there were people as light as 90 Lbs.

How much time does a scuba diver spend under water?

The basic recreational diver typically breathes either air or Nitrox. There are separate dives tables for air and Nitrox.

Not necessarily. It just depends on what someone means. Scuba diving is only when you use a scuba tank or cylinder that a diver carries. Deep commercial divers will often get their breathing gas supplied to them through a long umbilical hose ... so they are attached and do not carry Self Contained equipment that they can swim with like a SCUBA (self contained underwater breathing apparatus) diver.
