Why does an incandescent light bulb produce a continuous spectrum that seems to favor red?
Actually the peak of the radiation from an incandescent light bulb is in the near infrared, not the visible spectrum. The visible light that you see is the falling upper sideband of this: very strong in the red and declining until it is weak in the blue and violet end with a very small amount of radiation in the ultraviolet. The lower sideband extends across the infrared and into the far infrared. Well under a third of the emitted electromagnetic radiation of an incandescent light bulb is visible light, most is infrared.
What effects are on the central nervous system from exposure to argon gas mixed with perfume?
It depends on how much argon gas and perfume you were exposed to and how strong it was. If it was very strong perfume and argon gas and you were exposed to too much of the mixture, your central nervous system will shut down and you will die. If it was just ordinary mild perfume and argon gas and your central nervous system was exposed to very little of the mixture then you will feel very tired and fall asleep.
