If carbon monoxide is heavier than oxygen then why install carbon monoxide detectors on ceilings?
Carbon monoxide is actually close to the same density of air. It is carbon dioxide that is denser than air.
Compounds found in the air?
Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide
Which is heavier carbon monoxide or oxygen?
Oxygen. Because , mass of carbon monoxide is 28, whereas that of oxygen is 32.
Is it bad if carbon monoxide is lighter than air?
No
Can central air cause carbon monoxide?
yes
What do furnace filters filter out of the air that passes though them?
They filter carbon monoxide out of the air. Carbon Monoxide is a deadly gas, but it's invisible and doesn't have a smell. When too much of it gets in a room where it can't get away, you can die from it.

no its not
What you will get when carbon gets burnt?

Which poisonous gas gets out of the car?
Carbon Monoxide.
Which is heavier carbon monoxide or oxygen?

Only if the air it is circulating has carbon monoxide. Air conditioners do not produce nor do they contain carbon monoxide. If you suspect carbon monoxide in your air, you need to have an HVAC professional or your local gas company inspect your dwelling because another source is producing this deadly gas. Unmaintenanced heating systems are often the culprit.
Is air lighter than carbon monoxide?
CO is lighter than airAt 25 degrees Celsius and 1 atm of pressure, carbon monoxide's density is 1.145kg/m3, and the density of air is 1.1839kg/m3. So carbon monoxide is slightly lighter than air.
What the air is comprised of when you breath it in and out?
carbon monoxide
Carbon monoxide is found in?
it is found in air
