Air is a mixture of gasses. In order of decreasing abundance they are:
Nitrogen: ~78%
Oxygen: ~ 21%
Argon: ~ 1%
Water vapor ~ 0.4% (variable)
Carbon dioxide: 0.04%
Other gasses are present in trace amounts.

∙ 10y agoThere is a much higher level of oxygen in the air than carbon dioxide?

∙ 11y agowell oxygen and carbon dioxide are both gasses. carbon dioxide is actually a compound (a chemical bond) of oxygen and carbon which are both gasses and elements

∙ 12y agoOxygen: 32 g/mole O2
Carbondioxide : 44 g/mole CO2 ( = 12 + 32)
One mole of each (= any) gas has the same volume, 22.4 L (at Standard T and p)

Which is not a compound water carbon dioxide gas silicon dioxide oxygen gas?
Oxygen gas is made up of one substance = oxygen. So oxygen gas is not a compound
Name one of the elements that make up carbon dioxide gas?
Carbon and oxygen.....
Where does gas exchange of carbon dioxide and oxygen happen?
In the alveoli which is in the lungs
What gases do candles give off when burning?
Air is mostly Nitrogen, but that is not the "burning" part; Oxygen is probably what you are looking for, as that is the part that helps the candle burn, without there would be no fire. Or maybe you are looking for Carbon dioxide, that is what burning candles (which are mostly carbon) produces. What gas causes a candle to burn? Oxygen. It is the oxygen in the atmosphere that chemically combines with the wax of the candle to give Carbon dioxide gas and water vapor. What does candle need from air to burn? A candle requires oxygen (O2) to continue its combustion reaction and produce CO2 and H2O.
The splitting of carbon dioxide to form oxygen gas and carbon compounds occurs when?
During photosynthesis.
What gas may be required for photosynthesis?
photosynthesis :)
Which gas passes into the blood from the alveoli?
ravioli
Which gases are involve in photosynthesis?
There is only one gas. It is the CO2 gas.
What contain two main gases in earth gas?
oxygen/ carbon dioxide oxygen/ carbon dioxide
What is the chemical name of a greenhouse gas that contains carbon and oxygen A Carbon Dioxide B Nitrogen Dioxide C Sulfur Oxide D Laughing Gas?
The chemical name of a greenhouse gas that contains carbon and oxygen is carbon dioxide.
What gas is in a bathbom?
Oxygen and carbon dioxide
What is an abundant gas?
Oxygen Carbon Dioxide
Which of these is a compound Carbon dioxide gas Liquid nitrogen Oxygen in the air Neon in lights?
Carbon dioxide gas
Which gas do animals remove from the air?
The gas that is taken in by animals is oxygen. Animals absorb oxygen and exhale carbon dioxide. Plants take in carbon dioxide and let out oxygen.
How does carbon dioxide gas get in and out oxygen gas get out of the leaves?
stomata
How does carbon dioxide gas get in and oxygen gas get out of the leaves?
stomata
Gas used in the process of photosynthesis?
6 CO2 + 6H2O + energy = C6H12O6 + 6O2 so gas used is carbon dioxide and gas produced is oxygen
