Best Answer
The four most common gasses in the dry atmosphere and their approximate proportions are nitrogen (78%), oxygen (21%), argon (0.9), and carbon dioxide 0.03%.


Water vapor would typically come in between 2nd and 4th if you included it in these numbers. At Earth's surface, water vapor can take up anywhere from just over 0 to nearly 7 percent of air. It's variability makes it difficult to put numbers to questions like this
