When the earth was formed, volcanoes were commonplace. These volcanoes released water vapor into the air, and produced gases filled with nitrogen, hydrogen, and carbon. The planet's atmosphere consisted of these gases and at the time, there was no free oxygen.

Why is gas dangerous in the workplace?
Depends on the type of gas. A lack of oxygen and nitrogen in the workplace could be extremely dangerous as everyone would die. Gases like methane and hydrogen are explosive and therefore present a major hazard.
What were the gases on earth 4.4 billion years ago?
About four billion years ago the earth was in its initial phase of cooling down the the conditions at that time were so extreme that the formation of gas and fossil fuel and conditions for pertaiment of life haden't formed yet. The process of gas formation requires millions of years

How does the present atmosphere differ from earth original atmosphere?
The original atmosphere contained only nitrogen, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor. Today's atmosphere contains 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, 1% shared between argon, carbon dioxide, helium, methane, ammonia, and neon.
What are the other gasses that found in the atmosphere besides Oxygen and Nitrogen?
Nitrogen and oxygen are the main gases, but we also have argon, carbon dioxide, neon, helium and methane. Water vapour is also present in varying amounts depending on the humidity.

there are 6 = neutrons 10 = electrons 10 = protons present in the methane
What are the gases in the troposphere?
The troposphere is the lowest layer of the Earth's atmosphere. The most prevalent gases in this layer are nitrogen and oxygen. Some carbon dioxide, methane, carbon monoxide and sulfur dioxide are present as well.
Name two compounds in unpolluted air?
Carbon Dioxide is present in unpolluted air. Methane (animals grazing literally fart this out) is also present and Nitrogen oxides formed when lighting strikes. The electrical discharge is high enough to cause oxygen and nitrogen to combine. It is basically a natural fertilizer In unpolluted air these compounds are present at levels of about 390 parts per million, 1.8 parts per million, and 1 part per billion respectively. The most abundant and most important compound in unpolluted air is ... water vapour -- present at levels which vary between about 0.1% and 5%, depending on temperature and humidity.
