No, that would be the catalytic converter that does that. The air bag is there so that in the event of a crash the car's passengers will not impact the sides of the vehicle - they deploy in the event of an collision.
Nope.
even tho when the airbag explodes it hurts, but it stops you from : smashing your head on the glass. or there's an explosion it might stop you from getting burn
What do you mean smog a car? If car is sold "as is", buyer is responsible for all mandatory smog control equipment. If you mean pass a smog inspection, there are none in Iowa.

The airbag system has a malfunction and will not deploy if needed as long as the airbag symbol stays on.
you cannot drive the car if the airbag is deployed, its pretty expensive to have them fixed
Where I live we have no smog testing, so no. Where you live it may be required, you need to call the DMV or ask again and include the Provence state or country you are asking about.
No.
