The air that you mostly breathe is oxygen carbon dioxide ozone or nitrogen?

The air that we breathe in 78% nitrogen, 21% oxygen, and 1% carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other gases. We only need the oxygen though, so we breathe out the other gases with the carbon dioxide that our body produces during respiration. So to answer your question, it is nitrogen, but we breathe it in and then out- we don't use it. The only gas we use is oxygen to breathe.

Why isn't it correct that we breathe in only oxygen and breathe out only carbon dioxide?

Because when you breath, you breath air which is 80% nitrogen and 20% oxygen. Also the air you breath out still has oxygen in it, you do not use all the oxygen and only produce a small amount of carbon dioxide in each breath.


Is water in the oxygen you breathe?
