I don't know when it was invented... probably in the first few years of WW1. I do know that it was first used in the battle of Ypres, 22 April - 25 May 1915. Although crude chemical warfare has been employed in many parts of the world for thousands of years (such as poisoned arrows or burning mustard gas balls.), "modern" chemical warfare began during World War I (see main article - Poison gas in World War I).[2] Initially, only well-known commercially available chemicals and their variants were used. These included chlorine and phosgene gas. The methods of dispersing these agents during battle were relatively unrefined and inefficient. Germany, the first side to employ chemical warfare on the battlefield,[3] simply opened canisters of chlorine upwind of the opposing side and let the prevailing winds do the dissemination. Soon after, the French modified artillery munitions to contain phosgene - a much more effective method that became the principal means of delivery.[4
It wasn't just one gas, it included phosgene, chlorine, and mustard gas. This war was the first time ever any of these poisons were used in warfare.
i think using chemical weapons in war is not the best idea in the world but if that is all we have to use then i guess we will use it. but i also think that creating a way to kill our enemies without our weapons hurting our soldiers sould be made.
Canisters of poison gas were launched into enemy positions so that the clouds would kill or injure soldiers

WW1 introduced submarine warfare, tanks, chemical warfare, and aerial combat. Man's history already knew battleship warfare from Tsushima in 1905; and massed land warfare consisting of infantry. WW2 REFINED submarine warfare, tanks, and aerial warfare; chemical warfare was outlawed by treaty.

Trench warfare was one of the new forms of warfare introduced during World War 1. Another new form of warfare was chemical warfare.

the cold war affected everyone greatly due to the large threat of nuclear warfare
WW1 was Chemical Warfare (Mustered Gas); Nuclear Warfare wasn't invented until 1945, the end of WW2 (about 29 years later).
more suffistication. atomic bombs contained more nucleus.
no it is not
Chemical warfare in WWI caused skin and respiratory problems.
