Air is a mixture of gases. Not a chemical compound of them, just a mixture. Like you get
when you pour some water, some whiskey, some vinegar, and maybe some milk all into a
jar and stir it up.
-- Air is mostly Nitrogen ... more than 3/4 of it.
-- About 1/5 of it is Oxygen, which is the part we need.
-- Water vapor can be anywhere from none to about 4% of air ... that's what makes it dry or 'humid'.
-- About 1% of air is Argon.
Those few gases already account for 99% of the air, but there are also tiny amounts of
almost 20 other gases in it.
