Hmmm, my cigarette pack claims there is 10mg of carbon monoxide. I'm guessing that's per cigarette, although it doesn't say. Note that it does differ per cigarette brand and type. I once heard light cigarettes contain less tar but more carbon monoxide. The entire expression seems a little vague to me though. Carbon monoxide (CO) is the result of an incomplete burn of carbon (or carbon based materials... i.e. anything organic). A complete burn results in Carbon dioxide (the fabled CO2). The interesting part to me would be the amount of CO in cigarette-smoke, considering that that's what a person inhales (maybe the cigarette pack lists that??). But the amount of CO in the smoke depends on how complete the burn of the tobacco is (in fact, I would expect CO in the cigarette itself to burn to CO2 when smoking!). A burn is more complete in an oxygen rich environment. I doubt whether "confined space with no ventilation" would make a tremendous difference to the complete/incomplete burn due to the small amount of burnt material in a cigarette. But I'm guessing that smoking at high altitudes (less dense air) causes more CO inhalation then smoking at sea level.

∙ 12y agoI personally weighed a Winston filter cigarette and found that it contained 700 mg net weight of tobacco. 20 of those cigarettes would add up to 14 grams or about one half ounce per pack.
Note: several answers on this website differ widely from this, raising further questions. No tobacco package ever contains any information about the net weight contents of tobacco in the cigarettes. Why couldn't there be a law requiring the exact net weight figure (500 mg, 700 mg etc.) to be present on the side of the cigarette in print at least as large as the print in which the name of the brand (as "Winston", "Marlboro", etc.) appears?
