No, it isn't. Carbon monoxide is carbon bonded to one oxygen atom, but carbon dioxide has two oxygen atoms. Unlike carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide is toxic, because it reacts with hemoglobin when inhaled and dissolved into the bloodstream. Carboxyhaemoglobin, the reaction's product, has a permanent bond between the 2 reactants, reducing hemoglobin's efficiency in carrying O2, and the person would feel suffocated or the need to breathe.

Yes, it is. All matter, whether a gas, liquid or solid, is a chemical or mixture of chemicals. Water and oxygen are chemicals. There are several million chemicals in the human body.

Co (small o) is the metal cobalt.

What gas affects greenhouse gases?
Carbon dioxide (CO2).
Is a greenhouse gas that traps heat in the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide (CO2).
What greenhouse gas is harmful when its concentration increases in the atmosphere?
Carbon dioxide (CO2).
What is co2 equivalent of ammonia as greenhouse gas?
Ammonia, as many other gases, contributes to the "greenhouse effect". The mayor gas known to increase global warming through the greenhouse effect is CO2 (carbon dioxide), and to compare the potential of any given gas to the greenhouse effect, an equivalency is often used. This equivalency comes from the fact that a metric ton of CO2 pollutes the environment; so a metric ton of methane contribute to the greenhouse effect as much as 25 metric tons of CO2 would contribute. So, 1 metric ton of ammonia do as much damage to the planet as "CO2 equivalent of ammonia" metric tons of CO2.
