Tear gas is a non-specific term for any chemical that is used to cause temporary incapacitation through irritation of eyes and/or respiratory system. Tear gas is used as a hand-held spray or in grenades. It is widely used by police forces to subdue people in arrest or riot situations.
Popular tear gases include the eye irritants CS, CN, and CR. Another widely used chemical eye and respiratory irritant is OC pepper spray.
See the Web Links to the left of this answer for more about CS, CN, and CR gases.
There's over a dozen different lachrymators in use around the world.
One of the most widely used is an agent called CS. Its active constituent is a compount called 2-chlorobenzalmalononitrile.
Because CS itself is actually a solid, other things are often mixed in with it to enable it to be delivered as a smoke.

Tear Gas, otherwise known as CS gas has the chemical formula C10H5ClN2. The IUPAC name is: 2-Chlorobenzalmalononitrile but is commonly called o-Chlorobenzylidene Malononitrile.
Vaporized oxalic acid, but for volcanic mitosis staging to help put atmosphere layers over time into the air.
The two main constituents are chlorine(Cl) and nitrogen(N).
The compound 2-chlorobenzalmalononitrile (also called o-chlorobenzylidene malononitrile) (chemical formula: C10H5ClN2), a cyanocarbon, is the defining component of a tear gas.
Made from pepper spray (OC gas), CS gas,CR gas, CN gas, (phenacyl chloride), nonivamide, bromoacetone, xylyl bromide, syn-propanethial-S-oxide, (from onions), and Mace (a branded mixture).
tear gas contains a variety of different gases
In fact there is a chemical composition of chloroform and nytric acid called Chloropcrin in tear gas which causes eye burning while tear gas cells are burst.
The chemical name of Tear gas is 2-chlorobenzalmalononitrile or o-Chlorobenzylidene Malononitrile.(C10H5ClN2). Tear Gas aka CS Gas.
Ethers containing peroxides can be detonate as tear gas when heated. Unburned material may form powerful tear gas. When wet, also forms irritating formaldehyde gas.
The basic constituent of Tear gas is phosgen gas, COCl2 (Carbonyl chloride) and laughing gas is nitrous oxide or N2O.
