"Gases" is the strongly preferred spelling. The plural of "gas".
---
Some style sheets reserve the use of the spelling "gasses" as a present singular tense of the verb "to gas" (to treat with gases). This follows the double consonant rule as in gassed and gassing.
Example : "The exterminator uses toxic gases."
Example : "In his job, the exterminator usually gasses the hiding vermin."
