Is it correct to say that you breathe in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide?
It is probably more accurate to say that you breath in air, a mixture of gases which contains about 21% oxygen and 0,04% CO2, and you breath out a mixture of gasses which contains a far greater concentration of carbon dioxide than you inhaled (about 5% of the mass of all the exhaled gas).
Why does helium change your voice?
Because Helium is lighter than the oxygen and other gases we breathe, when it passes through your vocal chords, it makes them vibrate quicker than the heavier gases like Oxygen-(8) and such. So because they cause your vocal chords to vibrate quicker, it tightens up your vocal chords and makes the pitch of your voice go up.
What gas do we breathe small amounts of it out?
We breathe out the nitrogen and the oxygen in the air - though the amount of oxygen that goes out is less than the amount that goes in, since part of it is absorbed by our lungs.We also breathe out carbon dioxide, which is a result of our metabolism.
Does any gases make your voice deeper?
A gas that had a higher density than oxygen
How do you separate mixture of nitrogen and oxygen?
Cool the gases to a temperture between the boiling points of the two gases. Nitrgen condenses to a liquid at a higher temperaturte than oxygen. So liquid nitrogen is drawn off and gaseous oxygen remains.
Do lizards breathe oxygen?
Yes everthing abiotic other than plants breathe oxygen.
Why cant humans respire gases other than oxygen?
Oxygen is a gas. In addition, gases other than oxygen are involved in the respiration process - such as carbon dioxide or nitrogen.
Do you exhale oxygen?
You breathe in the complete mixture of all the gases in the air. Your body then extracts some of the oxygen for you to use and replaces it with carbon dioxide as a waste product. Then you breathe out the resulting mix, which has more carbon dioxide and less oxygen in it than what you breathed in.
When you inhale you take in?
When some people think of the air we breathe, the first thing that comes to mind is oxygen. While oxygen is the essential component of all breathing gases, the air around us is not pure oxygen. When you inhale, or breathe in, the air is roughly 78% (by volume) nitrogen, 21% oxygen, 0.96% argon and 0.04% carbon dioxide, helium, water, and other gases. When you exhale, or breathe out, the air coming out of your lungs is 4% to 5% carbon dioxide and 4% to 5% less oxygen than was inhaled (So, about 16% oxygen). You also breath out about 5% water vapor and other mentioned gases. If you're wondering why we can't just breath pure oxygen, it's because our reliance on this relatively small amount of oxygen can cause over activity or euphoria in pure or oxygen rich environments.
What will happen if oxygen is abundant than nitrogen?
Well, if you meant "What will happen if oxygen is MORE abundant than nitrogen?" then the answer to that question is that all those who breathe in air would breathe more proficiently than ever before Well, if you meant "What will happen if oxygen is MORE abundant than nitrogen?" then the answer to that question is that all those who breathe in air would breathe more proficiently than ever before

Why is oxygen more important than the other elements?
Oxygen is what humans breathe in. We need it to be alive.
How is the air you breathe in and the air you breathe out different?
The air you breathe out has different amounts of oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide and a few other substances in it than the air you breathed in. Your lungs absorb a lot of the oxygen, for example, which is then carried by red blood cells to your heart and muscles. Your body also produces carbon dioxide as a kind of waste product which is in the air you breathe out. So the air you breathe out has less oxygen but more carbon dioxide than the air you breathed in did. There are also other smaller changes that you could look up.
Is more than three fourths of the air you breathe is oxygen?
yes
Name 2 gases other than the 6 noble gases?
oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, fluorine
What are the major gases in the atmosphere?
Nitrogen rhen oxygen then argon and less than 1% of other gases
How you breathe in air?
you breathe in something called oxygen and then breathe out something called carbon dioxide. Inside your body the oxygen gets running through your blood vessels ans heart and muscles. then even though you breathe in a bit of carbon dioxide- you breathe more out than in! :)
